[status] Anchored off Berras island. Went to a party in Navindavu on Friday. They put up a pretty large lean to building with poles and corrugated iron attached to Seta's house. His daughter was turning 21 and they celebrate this with a big party. Had a nice meal, they killed a pig and cooked a Lovo. Got home well after dark but the Kava drinkers were still going strong when we left. They actually started to run out so Lendua and Temo did a run across to the neighboring island of Ongea for more. There is no Kava left on Fulanga and the monthly supply ship doesn't come till Tuesday. Been diving most days, the swell came up a bit and had quite a good surf near the pass yesterday morning too.
Our nice quiet anchorage changed when 5 yachts came and anchored here within an hour yesterday!!! I was out sailing on the windsurfer so it was a bit late to move by the time I came back. Most of them (ICA)are gone so hoping the rest will follow today so we don't need to move. This lagoon is huge and has so many stunning anchorages there seems little need to anchor next to another boat by itself.
