Back to Good Weather Again...

Tuesday, February 17. Blue sky. Calm sea. 28 C.

Well, we are back to sunny days again. We are now just about the furthest West that we will be on the entire trip. That fact plus the fact that we will soon be having clock changes that take away an hour's sleep means that this lazical journey is beginning to wind down and a real world awaits us out there. I think you all know my feeling about being ready to come home before the trip is over. 

Today I finally got rid of this annoying feature on my phone and Laptop that happened some time ago when there was an update and 'They' slipped some AI, [artificial intelligence] into the operating system that purports to know what you are going to type and fills in that, instead of what you want to type. I have not described that very well but it is such a relief to know that I am not the only one who has been driven crazy by that feature. No doubt there are millions of people who that works for them very nicely. Not this dude!

Fellette went for a longish swim after breakfast this morning and I went for a long walk, alone, something I have not done before, as usual, I overdid it, as well I climbed too many stairs and paid for that  by being confined to a very relaxing pre lunch nap, without guilt.

The captain, on his noon report, warned us of the heat tomorrow when we are anchored off of the tiny town of Exmouth. Tomorrow morning as we are anchoring I intend to be in a chair in the Spa getting a Pedicure! That is my Toe Nails trimmed. Over these 90 years I have lost a few toenails for various reasons and they are difficult to trim. I usually have them trimmed every couple of months and it is now time! It does not sound very Manly I confess!

We hope to get ashore tomorrow, we will see how things go. We are two days in Fremantle, or Perth in two days, and there we will have more than ample time to get a haircut and sight see. The heat is something that Fellette and I are not lovers of, my skin is a mess at the best of times and I go to great lengths NOT to get it 'Tanned' as we used say. We still see people laying in the hot sun on deck. I just don't understand some people. We see the evidence on board here of people who were Sun Lovers in their youth. Some rough looking skin on board I will tell you.

Good Day.

Just to have a photo here today and in case you forgot what our Great Grandson looks like, here is Miles!
