Day 3 to Aneityum, Vanuatu
 The second I had done yesterdays position
ping and loaded the blog, it was if someone switched the wind off. The wind is
indeed a fickle mistress. On went the engine and as the swell was a bit bigger
Mexican train dominoes was off the list. I suffered a five one loss at
backgammon but pulled a few dollars with some Rummikub wins. Bear had an amazing draw in one of the games.
  The sunset was ‘sun
there, sun gone’, but we were left with a pretty soft
sky.
  Lovely to see things were normal aboard..........
  This morning I had a fiery sunrise just after five. When we near Vanuatu the
clocks will go back an hour, seems really odd that the day will begin even
earlier.
 I had a really good sleep and en route to
the cockpit, nipped into the office to change yet another DVD from the last big
purchase. Well....... colour me happy, the chartplotter told me we had one
hundred miles to do. We’ll be in tomorrow morning – how exciting, a new country
for Beez.
 Outside the sea was a
beautiful blue and Beez barely caused a splash as she glided
along.
   Flag ceremony. It seems ages since we’ve
got a new flag out of the collection. All that remains of the poor Fijian flag that suddenly disappeared
one day. Bear doing his skippers duty.
In the last twenty four hours we have
covered 132 nm
Total so far 373 nautical
miles
Today’s Position: 219:55.74 South
171:15.37 East.
ALL IN ALL ANOTHER LOVELY
DAY
A COMFORTABLE
DAY |
