Position, 23.56S 179.06W

Ten boats have now joined us in the lagoon along with two Tongan commercial fishing boats. Sue and I found it a little spooky being the only boat here so we are glad to have the company. Spendid day here today. Twenty-five degrees and clear skies. Harmonie arrived this afternoon so Anne and Don are helping us clean up the mahimahi tonight. Launched the dinghy this morning and snorkeled around some beautiful coral. Many large colourful clams and clear water.
