Earlier we had the pleasure of seeing whales, then some monk seals, then some dolphins. It's like waiting for a bus. None for ages then they arrive in abundance.
We're diligently working our way through our passion fruit treasure trove and sharing the skins with surrounding nature. Plenty to go and every one is a surprise taste for both of us.
Weather forecast this morning supports our decision to go S after an unsettled very rolly night on the hook when sleep was dependent on severity of the roll - not a lot either. Hence, today it's a little work, a little read, a little feed, a little snooze .......... repeated. Nevertheless it's another beautiful sunny, warm day. 27 C again and rather pleasant. Just 4 hours to dark although we should have the moon for company until early hours provided skies stay reasonably clear. With the prospect of having to stay well clear of the unlit navigational hazards, we will time our close arrival for after daylight so that we have good eyeball on nasty rocks as we pass them. WE have a permit to land and wanna use it if we can!
Love to our GC's xxxxxxxx
