A few weeks ago, Roland and Penny called to say they were thinking of "popping" over for a sail. I love that Roland used the words "popping over" like he was coming from down the street when in reality they live on the other side of the country. That is similar to someone in Ohio saying they are going to pop over to San Diego. Absolutely fantastic!
They were planning on getting into town the week of the cyclones, but the charter company shut down, therefore pushing back their visit a week. This worked out well because the cyclones were quite intense, and we would have been called back in anyway and stuck in a hotel.
We took a 30 minute ferry that leaves from down the street and met Roland and Penny on Hamilton Island where they flew into. Being a small island that was specifically built around a resort, we easily found each other and were on our way for a week of sailing the Whitsunday Islands on a 46 foot catamaran. Big boat with plenty of room for four people. 4 rooms, 4 bathrooms and plenty of sitting room all through the boat, inside and out.
