Back on the northern hemisphere.
On our sixth day to Tarawa, the last long leg for the season. Atoll
hopping from now on.
Still 180nm to go from the starting 950nm.
We have crossed the equator two times and the international date line,
officially now one day behind most of ojur readers.
Tarawa might be a surprise, but from what we have been reading, the atoll
is overpopulated, has serious health issies and garbage disposal. Water is
not safe to drink and groceries offer might be limited. No use for our
Safeway card here hahahahaha
All is well and we continue sailing under constant trade-winds, unsual for
the equatorial zone.
The only noteworthy event was a sneak attack of a flying fish straight on
Lar’s face right after dinner. It was hilarious and Wania is histerically
laughing every time she remembers LArs’ reaction .... smile
