Day 2 – whales at sea

Well not much to write about on day 2. Woke up early after an awful night’s sleep, lol, it will get better I’m sure. Took some sunrise photos. We went to breakfast, the range of food they provide is astounding! Went for a walk on the 10th, top deck and watched Geraldton getting closer. We set anchor quite a way out from the shore and tenders were used to ferry people back and forth. We stayed on the ship, did some sewing, beading, reading, game playing and eating, plus a little more walking. We fled the deck when the dance music started, way too loud, and relaxed in our room. I managed to get the dongle working so did some Internet stuff. The Telstra reception has been quite amazing with at least one bar showing whilst all this way off the coast. Just as we were getting ready to go to dinner I saw something out in the water. A couple of whales were tail waving and splashing around, so we watched them until the ship had gone too far past them. Another lovely dinner, then a wander through the shops, and then time for bed. Forgot to mention yesterday, but the Broome visit has been cancelled, we are going to Port Hedland instead. Something to do with the size of the tides.
