[Status] Anchored at Ilot Huon
Ilot Huon is a large lagoon and just beautiful. The wind has died out and the lagoon is flat and glassy. We're surrounded by dozens of massive, amorous turtles and huge numbers of birds who are not the least bit frightened of us. As I was at the bow anchoring, a huge Booby hovered beside my head to check I was doing it correctly, then looked me in the eye and flew off. As we snorkeled this afternoon Geoff was joined by a large turtle. The birds have been taking turns at landing on different parts of the boat and posing for photos. My camera's been working non stop...

We plan to leave in the morning and if possible stop at Chesterfield Reef in a couple of days.
