Wretched at sea

Sadly no photos today but if it helps my american reader,captain Mick took me sea fishing today ten miles out into shark bay,sadly after catching a couple of fish and feeling a little sea sick I chucked the rod onto the deck and said I was bored, in fact I was sea sick but did not want to admit it,he twigged the problem and kindly suggested I have a sandwich,which kind offer I declined with an expletive followed by off,relenting on seeing my dismal physog he showed his compassionate side and sped off for the wonderfull terra firma of carnarvon,on embarking with the words of "let me off this flipping thing" I sat on the jetty a while to retch,later we went home where I took a while to recover,now it is evening and champagne and red wine have healed the wounds,so as you see it is not all wine and roses here in western australia.
Tomorrow we depart for Denham for two days where we are led to believe you can swim with the dolphins.

Nothing as bad as being sea sick. I wanted to kill myself once when I was on a small boat going from one Greek island to another. Make sure you take photos of the dolphins.

Fishing trawlers, Bridlington and being drunk came to Micheal's mind
