| Yampi Sound as view from our stateroom balcony |
Today we continued north along the Kimberly Coast. The itinerary promised a "scenic cruise" through the captivating Yampi Sound, nestled between King Sound and Collier Bay. Expectations were high for a day filled with breathtaking vistas and insightful commentary. Let's dive into the day's tides and tribulations:
The good:
- Fearless Fiona strikes again! She found Helmut, the Hotel General manager, who awarded us 100 bonus points for the scavenger hunt! She also successfully hunted down the cruise director and the activities manager!
- Dawn Dip Delight: We seized the opportunity for an early morning swim, relishing the rare luxury of having the pool entirely to ourselves. It was a refreshing start to the day, and a bonus of being an early riser.
- Creature Crafts: Our crochet hooks were ready for action! We embarked on an overly ambitious project beyond our skill set: a collection of mini Aussie animals! Stay tuned for the unveiling of our likely very ugly woolly wildlife!
- TikTok Triumph: The Yampi Sound provided a beautiful backdrop for a TikTok dance video, as well as a distraction from the bad dancing.
The bad:- Commentary Catastrophe: We had the distinct privilege of having both the regional pilot and a local expert providing commentary as we navigated the Yampi Sound. Unfortunately, and with all due respect, they were as boring as batshit. Consequently, much of the rich history and fascinating geography of this remarkable area sadly sailed right over our heads.
- Zumba Zero: The zumba instructor was a no-show! In a heartwarming display of camaraderie, a fellow passenger bravely stepped up to lead the class, and the rest of the eager participants followed in enthusiastic support. However, the resulting display was rather painful to watch. Bless their hearts for trying!
The unexpected:
- We were not fartled today
The Kimberly Coast adventures continues tomorrow!

| Tonight's show was celebrating soul music. Songs were great, but what was with the costuming? Looked like a mish mash of disco and Bollywood |
