HM Bark Endeavour

Today I sat and sketched bits of the Endeavour, a replica of Cook's ship that circumnavigated the world and put Australia on the map. I last saw her in Whitby when we were there a few years ago. Incredible, she is now almost around Australia. Her home port is Sydney.
It was a beautiful day and I just sat and looked and sketched odd bits that probably dont look much to any one else but were bits of rigging and cleats and the flag and the wheel that caught my eye and I could see though the crowds of school children and their teachers, actually I think the teachers were more enthralled than the children.
A bit more on this and photos on my other blog here.
