Leaving the dock at Eden
That's me above the Whale Watching sign, sadly none around at this time of year
Top deck
Quarantine Bay-acquired its name from a sailing ship which docked with a smallpox epidemic on board. The dead & cargo were buried ashore. When the ship left, the cargo was quickly dug up and sold!
Instructions on the lifeboat- I really liked picture 8-get the hell away!
Seahorse Inn- built by Ben Boyd in 1843. He hoped Boydtown would become the capitol of Australia. Now a restaurant & luxury accommodation.
Ship being loaded with 180,000 logs, destined for Japan
Edrom Lodge- built as private residence in 1910 with 28 rooms. Later became a guest house, then a prison farm. Locals say the inmates, sentenced to hard labour, spent their time surfing fishing, and playing for the local footy club.
Cuppa & bikkie aboard
I saw lots of dolphins, but they wouldn't stay still for me
Have a look at this site just click on the Blue Link
