[status] Had a good run yesterday doing 5 - 7kn under spinnaker with SE trade winds, but 0.7kn current against us. Current seems to have gone now and we've been motor sailing since taking the spinnaker down at about 1am. I've just seen the wind pop over 10kn, so perhaps more sail up when Shayne comes on watch in 10 mins. Its so nice and quiet when we turn the engine off, and start gliding across the ocean.

[status] Fairly calm and clear here off Foa Island. Yesterday, we had a calm day, and went diving with Matafonua Lodge and later snorkeling on the bommies around our anchorage. A bike ride and paddle-boarding planned for today. Can you tell we are enjoying it here?

3am. Hove to. In the morning we head into Savusavu to check in to Fiji after a two and a half day passage from Wallis. Looking forward to a long shower, full night's sleep, internet (especially emails from home -I've only had gmail access twice in the last 6 weeks), ice, Fijian curries, slightly cooler temperatures, fresh fruit and veg...
