pacific, we have a sick Kiwi on board with Malaria and christ knows what
else(we saw the fellas chasing her in cuba)
Just joking.
Nicki developed a bit of a fever out of panama, Las Perlas islands
enroute to Glapagos, we had a chat to the Royal flying doctor service in
Australia. They couldnt pin down the reason for the fever as we are
essentialy in quarentine on board.(I just figured she was skiving off
her watches)
So they suggested it could be Malaria. Unlikely as it sounds they
sugested we head to a port to check it out.(covering their backsides)
As Glapagos doesnt have the facilities to test for Malaria, we are off
to try the beer in Ecuador. A delightful seaside town called Esmarelda
(like outa bewitched). We will arrive there in the morning. After a week
of bashing southward to make the turn west to Galapagos. A few days rest
wont hurt a bit. We will let you all know how it goes.
