Still at Minerva. Waiting till the wind and sea eases a bit to head to Fiji. Haven't been able to get on the reef as its been too rough and windy. Spent yesterday studying weather, and doing domestics and maintenance. Last night's menu: roast kumera, potato and garlic, suateed chicken tenderloins with dill, and zucchini Provencale. Down to the last bits of green veg now.
Wind 24 to 30 knots, cloud cover 60%, bar 1012
