Tingalpa Creek

Wow, what a hot day we're experiencing today. The temperature at the moment is 33 degrees with the humidity only sitting at 44%, so it has me wondering just how hot & sticky we'll be feeling next year when we're sitting at anchor somewhere in Indonesia!

Since being in the Morton Bay area, we've spent most of our time in Tingalpa Creek. Actually, since living onboard, we've quite often spent time in this safe haven as it's an "all weather anchorage" & offers nearby facilities that every yachtie looks for when going ashore. Meanwhile, we still have easy access to the bay when we want to go sailing so it definately suits us. Of course, being a hop, step & jump from our daughter's place at Manly comes into the equation too, so as well as having access to facilities, we always have access to some of our lovely grandchildren.

Time is flying by at the moment & with everything on our yacht up to scratch, it's just a matter of waiting. My Mum & Dad are joining us for the first 4-5 weeks of our trip up the coast so once they arrive from Nambucca this week & we've shopped for supplies, we'll be ready to sail off with the first southerly winds. How exciting!
