On board the spirit at 10pm (bit later than expected) meant the night lights of Melbourne put on some show. With a bit of time before bed to explore the boat some students were very excited to be on board. The weather across the waters put quite a few students to sleep. Spew count 0 thanks to God 1

Our bus driver Mr E was giving the young men of the school a lesson in chivalry. Mrs P was provided with some needed shelter whilst handing out some well needed drugs in the car park.

We arrived in Devonport making great time over night with calm seas. This meant we could keep to our well thought-out schedule by the man up the front. For some students breakfast at Maccas was a new experience and for others it meant that they could rest easy knowing that they could have some consistence in their life.


Back on the bus and off to Sheffield where a little town delivered some interesting murals, shopping, ice-cream and morning tea.


Msgs from students. Big Fulmer don’t buy a wallet for Pauline. Hi. I didn’t get sick on the boat, yay, ps Carlee didn’t get sick either. Yew! Tell George I can’t play footy.

Great to hear there was no spewing. Was told today the remedy if feeling seasick is to jog on the spot, this is from a retired pastor, so he can't tell lies.
ReplyDeleteHey Caleb, you don't miss us yet?

Very impressed Year 9ers on hearing the zero spew count!! This blog is fantastic. Love the photos and journalling. Thinking of you and miss you all. I hope you are enjoying the Macquarie Harbour Cruise today; an amazing part of Australia. I hear the harbour is quite full so I hope you can get off the boat at Sarah Island and up the Gordon Rv. Cheers, Mrs Moore
