This time we had a big apartment on Hamilton Island. The Oldies found a great deal on the web and it was just as cheap as staying in most other places. So we had loads of room and a big balcony where you could sit and watch all sorts of boats sailing along the passages between the islands. Scruffy, Milkshake and I spent a lot of time on the balcony. We had visits from lots of birds during the day and geckoes at night (not that Mum let us stay out there for long after dark). The prettiest time of day was sunset. I like the way that the sky changes colour and the light gets all soft and dim. From our balcony we could watch the Sun all the way down, until it set behind the really big island in the background of the picture. Actually that big island is Australia, so we weren't all that far off the coast, not like when we were on Norfolk Island where we watched the Sun set over the ocean with no land in sight at all. Watching sunsets is kind of funny because it makes you feel really good and nobody now, not even a small bear, worries that the Sun mightn't come up again.
