I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.

[status]Anchored at Saweni Bay. In Lautoka yesterday all stocked up again and been to the Dentist Dr Mukhtar Mohammed of City Dental and are all prepped up for three crowns arriving in a fortnight all for $825 NZ dollars. We have had good reports about him from other cruisers and you certainly can't beat the price.
Off to Musket today via Vuda Pt to refuel. Bill on Liberations birthday on Friday so we will celibate that with him.
