This is Catseye Bay on Hamilton Island. Scruffy and I are sitting on a railing at the top of One Tree Hill, a place where you can see most of the bits of the island that you can get to easily. The tide is in, so the bay looks like a good place for a swim. When the tide is out the bay is empty and the exposed sand and mudflats are alive with crabs. That is a good reason for us to be high up above the bay. We stayed in one of the big hotels you can see in the picture. It had a glass elevator on the outside of it. Mum liked riding in it, Dad just went pale and hugged the back wall. I really liked Hamilton Island. It is a place where small bears can hoon around in golf buggies, and it is quite safe provided you watch out for piratical cockatoos.
