Phew
Had to stop for a row around the bay, here at the Coral Gardens. We set off with no wind, bright sun and a sparkling bay, Joanne rowing for the practice and a tiny bit of exercise.
The rain started and the wind turned to the south, ie directly from the direction of our now slightly distant boat.
All the hatches open in the boat to let in the breeze. Of course.
No problem, stop rowing and start the outboard, feeling smug it starts so well.

Vava'u. Wow.
The last 4 days filled with so much intense doing nothing much that there was no time to update the blog.
