[s]We've moved over to the Sandspit anchorage in the ESE of the Fulaga lagoon. A big village picnic took place here yesterday - 14 yachties plus about 35 locals enjoying wonderful crab (both land and sea crabs, all cooked in a lovo earth oven) and fish, plus 'pot luck' dishes from the yachts. Ana's birthday (from Ithaka) was celebrated with a great cake made by Ma the baker. Quite a day![END]
The cabin of a small yacht is truly a wonderful thing; not only will it shelter you from a tempest, but from the other troubles in life, it is a safe retreat.
