11/14/2008: "Cabin Fever"

Our crossing continues to go at a leisurely pace. Baden reads to Fletcher, Gavin chews through novels, Estelle does schoolwork, Catherine keeps us healthy and manages to get out her cross-stitch. We play cards, drafts and chess. We talk. We plan. We dream. Cairns is four days away at our current pace but a gale warning has been issued for Queensland waters. Some of it will get us. Now for some adventurous sailing.
