Today we finally let the mooring go, topped up the
water tanks, said good bye to many friends and took off.
On the way out we met the first Swedish boat in a
long time. A Hallberg Rassy by the name Liv.
We went about 3 nM before we let the anchor
go.
Yes 3 nM! By choice. Nothing else. This place was
recommended by Legacy, a great spot to see lots and lots of fish.
The reason you find a lot of fish we do not know
but we had a very annoying experience, there is a resort nearby, called Costeau
of all names and they obviously feed the fish when they bring their guests to
the place.
I prefer shy fish, we jumped in and it felt like
being a piece of meat thrown into the water so the pyrhaias could have their
meal.
We were attacked by swarms of seargant fish and
when they realised we had no food they tried to take a byte of me and
Andreas.
Well well, it was really nice to be out on a nice
place and just enjoy the peacefullness at anchor.
Our plan is to aim for south Lau, and the island of
Fulanga.
The boat is full of food and supplies as we count
on being there as long as possible.
The Lau group has recently been opened to
foreigners and is supposed to be very pristine and the villages are extremely
traditional.
As we get there we will have no internet or phone
other than satellite again. Just so you know.
No pictures for a while but hopefully more
thereafter.
