27.07.2008 – Sunday 27 July – Cooktown

Morning

• I slept in, though not for too long.

Midday

• We all had a big lunch.

Afternoon

• Sarah and I walked to Sarah’s place, where I went online for a while to test her laptop and wireless ADSL. It seems to work. Vince had been out fishing and got a lot of fish. Sarah and I dropped past the Local News office to copy some photos off my camera.

Evening

• Sarah watered Mum’s garden. I tried skipping my ibuprofen, taking only paracetamol—which mostly worked, but did start hurting a fair bit by 5 o’clock.

Night

• Dad and I watched TV. Mum went to bed early.
