Tuesday 13th September 2016     Position 1:25.03N 103:39.47E  in Puteri Harbour

The day was mainly occupied with provisioning for the next 4-6 weeks – 1 week to Krakatoa, 1 week to Cocos, 1 week at Cocos and 2 weeks to Mauritius. Although some provisioning will be possible on Cocos the choice will be limited and the cost high. Took a taxi to the local AEON Mall. (The whole area surrounding Puteri is the subject of massive and very impressive development.) We spent nearly £600on food and drink, which filled the taxi. It was amazing that we managed to stow everything when we got back to the boat, although the itemised stores inventory will be essential if we are to find anything again.

Looking forward to spending this evening enjoying the last restaurant food we will be having for a couple of weeks.
