We are back in town and enjoyed a bacon and egg
breakfast with lovely cappuccino at "Tropicana". We had to get up early to beat
the other sailors and get faster internet to call the family. The good thing was
that Lisa also takes in the washing and we were able to get one load washed
and dried by the time we were getting ready to leave.
Today was a busy day with another big bag of washing
done at the Coconet Cafe, getting food at the market, filling our canisters with
petrol for the outboard and making an epic journey to fill two cooking gaz
bottles. We also met Phil, the sail maker who is going to stitch up our
genoa tomorrow.
It is lovely to have a full fridge again and enjoy the
luxuries of chicken, extra mature cheddar, as well as apples and carrots besides
the local food.
This year is a very rich mango season and we have
been showered by fresh mangoes and bananas on our stay at Lape
island.
There are plenty of photos to give you a taste of Tonga
and we hope to be able to post them soon.
Now we are getting ready to go out to see a show at
Tonga Bobs not to be missed we were told!
