The nature of the journey,
the journey of nature,
snippets of a grander,
then, now, always…

everyday masterpiece…

Guided by devine light..

Shadow self…
Just Do
Just Say
Just Be

The creature…

The creature…

The creature…
I am the Expression
all else
all that there ever will be

peaceful…
Peaceful.
Sate..
Happy…

Hamilton Island Marina
A month on..
As I look at my previous post, I smile.
So far we have come,
Our dream in action…

Sunset at Seven Spirt Bay

A dip in the cool waters.

“follow the dream”
But before leaving the Top End we had to stop off to celebrate. Nestled within Carig Gunak Barlu National Park around the Colbourg Peninsula is a beautiful little resort.
A little bit of paradise in a vast vacant land.

Hello from Port Essington

Glass relics, Port Essington
We Celebrated….
We had completed our goals in the direction of our dreams, 4 years we’d been at it.
Our goal was to set Tiata up for some long term and remote cruising.

Tiata sits behind a blanket of smoke in The Top End

Lounging in the water one morning…

Nature…

Lush and green,
cool and serene..
We are now sitting near the tip of Cape York in Seisia, Queensland.
Waiting for the winds to abate..
But we are in no hurry, we’ll just toddle around here…
Plotting the Journey…
It’s getting close now,
the final jobs are slipping away,
the time has come for us to start proposing a direction…

My lemons are preserving…

Reflection

Direction
Our first destination…
Cobourg Peninsula – Garig Gunak Barlu is a national park.
About 216 km northeast of Darwin by road.
Our sailing route 120nm..
It was established by joining the former Gurig National Park and the Cobourg Marine Park…

Vast and beautiful
Deeply indented bays and coves cover some 4.500 km²..
Virtually uninhabited…

Darwin to Port Essington
Port Essington is an inlet and historic site located with in the park.
One of 2 failed attempts of early British settlement..
The ruins still remain…
(We were first through here June 2007 – en-route to the Kimberly’s)

Wuwudri Walk

looking through the ruins..

Blackpoint Wharf.
For this we will probably set sail with the bottom of the tide in the evening to catch the ingoing tide through the Vernon Islands.
and will ensure and outward tide around Cape Don..
With a hopeful lunchtime arrival…

Nestled deep…
Well that’s the loose plan.
mmm maybe one last gourmet treat before virtual wilderness…
We will be there till we are ready to go..
Desire Everything…


The final jobs are being done.
It won’t be long now..
Mere weeks…

It’s been a busy couple of days.
Out of one life..
Into another…

Today I have had time onboard.
Clearing and sorting..
It’s great to be home…

We have spent 4 years putting together the best systems for Tiata.
Power is proving itself so far today we have collected 130 Ah, we have used our inverter which allows us to use 240volt.!
We charged up all our electrics and I used my computer plugged in…
Tomorrow I will use my computer on internal power and charge early in the day…mmm see what happens

It’s great seeing everything work.
We are heading remote..
In the most comfortable surroundings…

So great to be me…

A Journey Outside…
In the craziness there is Peace.
Knowing, that these are my dreams are coming into reality..
Surrounded by Nature, connected to life…

My dream board…
My dream board is too big for the boat so.
So I will..
Dive into those dreams…

We sailed here with nothing but debt and a dream….
Today after I finish this blog I’m packing up my space.
I love this room, the view is awesome..
It’s where I created and meditated…
Disconnecting from the land takes time.
I’ve got the Accountant on the go..
And there’s still final jobs on Tiata…
Bit by bit though it’s coming together.
The load is lightening..
The way is clear…

Where creations are made..
Life is a beautiful creation
What’s next…..I can only imagine…
But in my belief,
It only get’s better…
Bring it on….
