Macca's Meanderings

 Hello from a hot and humid Croker Island.  All this last week the forecasts were predicting maximums of 39 combined with high humidity. Nancy arrived in Darwin last Monday greeted by this 'warm' welcome. She will fly out to Croker Island next Monday, in the meantime she is catching up with our two sons in Darwin and other friends.  One of the aspects of the Garngi Rangers work is coastal patrols. We have contracts with both the Commonwealth and NT governments to do this work. Recently we have done patrols to both the northern and southern parts of the island. Even though the temperatures have been high, the seas have been very flat making for great days on the water. Below we are approaching Cape Croker, the northern most point of the island. Cape Croker has a small lighthouse - Nancy has a thing about lighthouses so will be keen to see this very remote one. At lunch time we found a shady spot at the mouth of a creek that also provided a good anchorage for the vessel.  Leaving
