Wednesday June 8th, 5 p.m. Nothing much to say. Moderately fine weather, atmosphere sweet & bracing, but getting very cool at sea now, a great change from 14 days ago. Our position at noon today was Lat. S. 21.48 – Long. E. 150.37, run 269. The distance from Townsville to Brisbane is 680 miles. There’s an exciting game of cricket going on now.
