in this week's episode down
troubleshoots the gearbox cooler we meet
this dude on a dive at Michaelmas k
where Darren makes a new friend and
after a slow mooch over to a poly wreath
meg gets into the housework as MacDowell
tackles cleaning up the proper
supervised by the sky
[Music]
[Applause]
last week we bid farewell to fellow
sailor hands my honey tried to pull off
a hat mutiny as we headed out to bless
off Kay and I showed you how to board
your tender like a pro so hey we're just
doing a little inspection on the gearbox
oil cooler and lo and behold there's
always a surprise take you in for a
quick look i'ma show you what's going on
as you can see it's full of weed and
stuff see water passes through that
cooler and then into the heat exchanger
for the engine so eventually that would
probably block out that pose to keep
looking at these things anyway thought
I'd share that with you after breakfast
we trundled off the mega miss Kay with
its stunning white sandy beach
it seemed a bit Rolly so we decided to
anchor out the back keeping a clear
escape route should the weather become
unfavorable during the night
you pretty much gonna hold this guy
so that um this
oh yeah
we both like to give the anchors set up
and ready while coming into an anchorage
so i release it from a gypsy and pay out
a little chain so that it hangs up on
the bowsprit ready to drop okay so that
was quite a productive little trip over
it was only about three and a half four
nautical miles so it took us under an
hour and so yeah we always multitask
when we are underway i we've had the
water maker cranking while i was making
a lovely big old fruit salad for lunch
and oh yeah so i am just making a bunch
of salads for dinner and then i'm gonna
go we're gonna go and explore silly
exciting hitting the water we head off
today and go see what little traits are
danly yeah baby
after a quick check of the mooring we
totaled off to explore what was a
delightful underwater scene with large
coral stacks and brightly colored branch
corals
I found this Lodge hotel he was pretty
casual keeping his eye on me
[Music]
and what a delightful pair these
clownfish were hiding behind each other
whilst checking out the visitors in
their space we've seen a lot of damage
reef on our travelers so it's terrific
to find systems like this so vibrant
with life and obviously thriving
[Music]
I was in the first line
oh you called me nothing yeah I am
oh yeah well you know I've actually only
baby it for about five minutes
[Music]
yeah that's it all right let's go yeah
baby let's go check out the K just come
in to check out this little booty nice
dude
you can tell us the birdie histogram
it's a bit whippy haha let's go see what
we can find there are 38 species of
seabirds living on nickel miss Kay turns
and not ease and to our delight we found
a booby bird and ruddy Turnstone nothing
a million birds a little head speaking
of everywhere no wonder this island is
one of the most important breeding sites
on the Great Barrier Reef and we're just
trying to walk along the very edge of
the water so as not to disturb them too
much just to let them be in their own
environment but yeah there's a some
little bubbles learning to fly and yeah
Mamas and Papas talking to each other
and and they're all and you can see them
chatting to each other and trying to
learn you tricks or teach their young
new tricks
it's very cool there you go what a great
place to come
how's the baby what's going on my honey
yeah we have a problem the other day
where the engine batteries gassed
themselves basically the alternator is
charging a little bit too hard it's
charging at fourteen point six volts
which is a little bit much what they
tell me is that you can just switch the
alternator off so what I'm gonna do I'm
just gonna put this isolator switch in
the line and just so I can switch them
off and I'll keep an eye on the voltage
that'll get me going until I come up
with a little bit better solution it's
not really the perfect location but it's
just that just so happens this is
actually a joint already in the war
there so that's how I've just favored
this sport for them in
Janie is my husband absolute genius
I made a smoothie and we set off for our
next adventure it was a calm day so we
motored but we didn't mind as the
destination was pretty cool so we should
only be about half an hour or so away
from Apollo Reef
or Halle Berry and
yeah at low tide this little sandy pay
will appear so we're quite looking
forward to that and apparently it's a
pretty good snorkelling so we all love
to check that out so yeah it's been
really lovely this area around the hands
the sculpting here and the reef
Anchorage's are just beautiful and
they're so close to town so to speak for
us
yeah it's nice because we've actually
got to shoot back in so I can have
another a Skype appointment with my
naturopath tomorrow so
we'll head back in tomorrow and yeah but
it's been just beautiful so glad to have
come out here and gotten this time away
it's been really good for our souls
[Music]
house cleaning on boats isn't just about
the inside and top sides it's also about
keeping the health clean it's a regular
job that keeps us both fit more
importantly a smooth health helps
varying fly through the water like the
filly that she is
[Music]
well I'm honey
I'm making you love me I've got this
gorgeous some fresh coconut that you how
old yesterday which is fabulous and I've
just chopped up the mate into little
slices and I put they don't talk about
yummy fruit salad
it's all happening lunch is ready bye
honey Richard chops around this we're in
the boat the boat all sorts of treasures
you need that was like it was on top
anyway first time anywhere think I'll go
this one today
[Music]
[Music]
unfortunately this part of the roof was
pretty barren we saw this guy who was
sussing out his mixed meal while getting
a makeover by a Suckerfish and we found
this cute little family and a neat
little swim through to explore
[Music]
back at sorry and we found a resident
back there waiting I returned so sit -
with some more chores
[Music]
that was just too cool for words I love
when you have interactions like that
there was just a sort of gray shadow
came up behind us or behind me and past
behind me and I thought oh here we go
turn around I was a cheeky little
breakfast which says awesome but he
wasn't that little I was quite huge he
must be a fair age yeah I'm not sure I
like it yeah and he was just super cuz
they just had this big I didn't like
looking at me like he just kept coming
up to say hello he tried and always
gonna kiss the camera and and I thought
I might be able to touch him you know I
don't like to touch the fish but yeah
yeah he just was so interested in what
we were doing and he was having a look
around and I thought he might have been
there for the food for what came off the
hull but he doesn't seem to be you know
I didn't find everybody sort of running
at me a couple of times that was very
cool another very cool nature
interaction how lucky are we good and so
it was time to head back to the Big
Smoke
so we're off now
gotta go back to poppin two kids and
just have my appointment with my magic
herb get my next set of medicinal herbs
sent over and my directions for my next
favorite healing
so we'll just pop in there and then
probably a provision a little bit more
and then come out again and enjoy this
beautiful weather because it's lasting
for another looks like it may go for
another week so that's great we gotta
come back out again very exciting ok
cool sounds good I was gonna say let's
go one of those days Oh Betty look baby
I'm sorry buddy we're leaving look at
Betty I reckon it was poo and another
spirit form
it was really something after us Tonica
talk to us how bizarre is that yeah
funny is the other side
Oh Betty we love you buddy
come back for that chicken the other
boats got tuna sandwiches yes so some
some good news that I wanted to share
with you all
just before I have my appointment with
my naturopath I go in the week before
and do blood tests to see how my cancer
mark is going about tumor markers and
that basically tells you how much
information there is going on in my body
and yes so those tests got emailed off
to her and she sent me a message to say
woohoo because my tumor markers have
gone down which I'm really excited about
it's a really good sign we are going to
muck them up and weave it because I'm
going to start doing a great fast but we
had to get to this point and then now I
can do my great fast now which I'm
really excited about because that's
going to pull more lymph and and debris
out of my body or toxins or whatever you
want to call it so yeah it's a really
good sign I'm so glad I am have put in
all the work this is a really good path
to choose and yeah it hasn't been that
easy five months and I have to say it
has been a bit challenging moving to
this diet so there's no more
sad diet they call it it's all just
fresh fruit and vegetables only no oils
nothing from a bottle or whatever yeah
everything's just handmade from
something that's grown in the ground and
yeah we feel really really good both of
us we've both seen signs within our
bodies and big changes that we are
preparing our bodies even Darrin even
though he doesn't have a diagnosis to
speak of it has been really challenging
the cravings for salty foods and
carbohydrates and and all that heavy
sort of plunky stuff and my body have
been slowly tapering off and yeah I
really noticed the difference when I'm
fully on the free high fruit diet my
body's just functioning really well so
yeah it's been a really good move and
yeah really excited to get this new
yesterday so yeah that's a win watching
