This little guy was bobbing around our boat this morning for at least an hour - FAST ASLEEP!! I touched him a couple of times as he came right up against the sugar scoop and was amazed at just how hot his little flipper "solar panel" was! Seals float around like this with their flippers out of the water in the sunshine, as a way of warming up, so I thought that his flipper would obviously be warmer than our 13 degreeC water but was really surprised by just how hot it was. He was totally oblivious to my touching him over and over - super relaxed and fast asleep.

WhitsundayEscape.com Do your kids seem to spend more time on their phones than communicating with you these days? Follow in the footsteps of the Samson family, who decided to whisk their two teenagers away for a sailing holiday in the Whitsundays for a bit of digital detoxing. They hired a Venturer 38 power cat and cruised around the islands, going wherever they wanted to go, which the kids loved. They went snorkelling lots, went kayaking and paddle boarding, did lots of walks around the islands, and even played cards and other games, like they hadn't done as a family in years. Don't take our word for it, hear it straight from their mouths about what a great holiday they had. And do they recommend it to other families? Even the kids gave a resounding 'YES!'
