On route we make a little detour to Agnes Water and 1770 (the name of a village). Here Cook set his first footsteps on Australian soil. I expected something interesting, but besides a beautiful bay in 1770 was there nothing specially note worthy. We did have a great lunch with bay view and very relaxed music. After asking the chef what we were listening to, he wrote a whole list of recommendations. The latest CD of Jon Butler Trio we bought later in a music store and enjoyed much.A bit more north we cross the Tropic of Capricorn, not that you notice directly.
When we stop at Roslyn Bay to see the beautifully formed rocks in sun setting light we notice an impressive catamaran. A closer look takes us on a pier, where I mindlessly drop the car keys...and they slip through the big gaps between the planks and disappear in the murky harbour water. My panicky yell alarms the couple of the catamaran to the deck. Halfway our story the woman jumps in her bathing suit and snorkel gear and slides in the water. It only takes her two dives and she emerges with our keys! Amazing!
