Danger in the Water
As part of my new venture to take the ferry to/from work more often, I managed to catch the ferry again this evening. However, as we approached the harbour bridge, the ferry suddenly sent the engines into reverse - all became clear a moment later, as we had apparently narrowly missed another boat coming from the other direction. What followed might best be described as water rage, as the captain of the ferry decided to pass on his years of experience to the offending passer-by who, true to the spirit of the situation, responded with a shrug of his shoulders followed by a two-finger salute! Once I got home the theme continued as, while I was giving Caitlin her bath, she managed to dislodge the bath plug and send water shooting across the floor. Fortunately, the bath is positioned such that there are tiles below, and we could easily mop up the spillage - but I'll have to watch out for her antics more closely from now on.
