Day 8 - Brisbane (17 November 2010)




I have been sailing through Moreton Bay in the past, crossing to Tangalooma for the weekend or sailing with my friend Chris Hancock on his 27 feet Taroona boat, but it is the first time I am entering the Brisbane River on a 77,000 tons ship!









Stopping at home, right in Hamilton! I went out with Barry, Riccardo and Chris, having a lunch in the city and buying equipment to build our vessel for the Scrapheap Challenge.


From the 39th floor - Skyline Apartments, find "her"!







A big thank you to all my friends here who keep my house, dogs and work under control, while I am away. And thank you to Melissa, Yasmine and Alex McKensie who came to wave me good bye.... I can hear Celine Dion singing! I am having a bottle of sparkling wine on my balcony on you honour, cheers!
