And off again...
Because of the numbers on the boat the coastguard came in and demanded a safety count. This is the first of three counts.
In this one we just had our cabins checked for stowaways and had a head count of the top deck and downstairs and then counted the new people (the ones on the jetty) as they got in.
In the second count they checked us again and got everyone off the boat and tried to count people as they got on. Of course for every person they counted three jumped on at the prow and stern of the boat.
Then they chucked everyone off the boat and did a role call... that we were not on. As a matter of fact no English speakers were on the list.
Tash the amazing with her Chilean Spanish got not just us but about five other Australians on.
