[status] Woke up a bit stiff and sore after the big beach walk (after being on the boat for so long with not much walking opportunities available!). Just as well they'd organised a yoga session for 8.30am at the Sea Change retreat! Time for a great stretch and refresh the body. Had breakfast there too and then walked to the other side of the island where there was reported to be some great snorkelling. It wasn't as good as we expected, with coral damaged by previous storms, but still great patches of live coral and millions of colourful tropical fish. The tide was a bit low so it was a bit nerve wracking floating just inches above the coral, but we all managed to get back to shore with no coral cuts! We then headed back to the ha'apai beach resort to sort some more customs paperwork before we head north on Sunday. Some locals turned up with bananas, pawpaw and coconuts which were all gratefully bought. We made sure to dunk our bananas and pawpaw in the salt water before bringing onboard. After dinner on SV "Morepork" (John Stewart - Boss Hogg and Googie Girl say hi :) we headed home for an early night. I've just got around to installing the SIM card we bought two days ago, so now have some Internet - hence these posts! I'll try to download some photos to post on Facebook soon too.
