A southerly change is expected today, so we decide to progress South only as far as Cid Harbour to sit out the change before heading further south.
Before leaving we went ashore a went for a walk and a bit of exploration of the end of the inlet in the dinghy before returning to the boat and moving on.

We motored over to Cid Harbour in a little over an hour and once safely anchored, decided to go ashore at Sawmill Bay for a BBQ lunch. We took our portable gas cooker and some sausages and set up on one of the many picnic tables available there. As soon as the sausages were well under way we were joined by a goanna who had no intention of leaving until he got a feed. It was so fearless it was unbelievable, circling the table all of the time within a metre of us.

A couple of crows were watching from above also in case something was on offer. We had an enjoyable lunch and managed to keep the goanna at bay.

After lunch we headed back to our boats for a restful afternoon. Also the change was starting to come through and the wind was strengthening quite a lot.
Cid Harbour is a good anchorage for anything from the south, so we slept well.
