Hi All,
We have deliberately had a quiet day of it due
primarily because we have all been feeling the effects of the tummy bug which is
going around to greater or lesser degrees. Cate, who has been suffering the
worst of us is now on the mend and is making a gradual return to the world
of food.
The result of it all has been that we have elected
to bow out of rally activities for the day to concentrate on rest,
recouperation, and not straying too far away form the head (boat word for
toilet).
A unique aspect of the anchorage here has been
our daily visits from Christopher Columbus, the local baker, who paddles
his dugout around the yachts at 6.30 in the morning with a big clear plastic
storage bin of fresh bread to sell to us yachties. It's kid of a new take on the
cappicino boat which we were used to on Middle Harbour in Sydney.
Our plan for tomorrow turns on how we feel when we
get up. As we have been unwell, we haven't been able to invite our host family
out to the boat for morning tea, so if they are not invlved in chirch tomorrow
we will make the effort. The next anchorage is only a couple of hour sail away
to the south on Pentecoste Island, so it won't matter if we don't depart until a
bit later in the day.
Tasall, TTFN!
