We?ve been hanging here waiting for the officials to arrive. They arrive with the cruise ship.

Made landfall a couple of days ago in Anoton. Beautiful place and a lovely anchorage. Awaiting the cruise ship to bring down the officials to clear. We have a pre -arrival clearance form.

Moved to Denearu Marina. No more laundry and showers. Contruction going on.

Another gorgous day, alas it was all under the iron genny. Now in Vitogo Bay outside Latoka. Moving to the tourist center tomorrow.

Back at Paradise resort. Nice people - nice place.

What a deep bay. Motored all day from Cousteau.

Interesting place at Mission Inn Buca Bay

Viani Bay. Motored again from Buci.

Moved to ease the roll at anchor and avoid the bommies. Heavy rain yesterday. Now in SW corner.

Move out by Cousteu for 2 days while the wx is nice. Clean water, few sounds of the city.

Hanging in Savusavu finishing a lot of small projects. Unfortunately we've had rain, rain, and more rain. Just finished yesterday and looking for wx to enjoy more of Fiji

Moved to Musket Cove just off of Nadi. Getting ready to commit to the repairs on Elysium. Paint is ordered and is said to be here Friday, a Fiji Holiday! Ha Ha.

Moving to Vuda / Denarau to effect repairs. Currently in Pacific Harbor. Long day tomorrow with little wind to Robinson Crusoe Island.

Expect to be anchored clearing customs in Suva this am. Approx 2 hours to RSYC. More motoring on this passage than any other in 10 years. The NZ wx really had it's digs in for us!

Still motoring. Lightning near us last night but closest was 8 miles. Rain for an hour. Calm this am.

Merrily we motor along, motor along! Yuck. I would rather sail at 4 kts then motor a 6. This is like driving a caravan (RV) across country in first gear. Yuck.

Almost no wind through the night. Floating on the anchor, rolling some as the swell makes it across the reef. Not as bad as when we were in the Galapagos.
