Monday 22 Feb 2010

A nice day today weather-wise, but although the forecast looks good we thought we’d wait another day to let things settle a bit more so the seas are hopefully less lumpy and confused. So, another day to kill here but tomorrow is it!!

Filled in time with another walk, Bruce and Claire went fishing, Stu attempted to teach me a few knots (bowline - rabbit comes out of the hole, around the tree and back in the hole, although the bloody rabbit kept getting lost…). Tried to make friends with the local cats, but I think the buffalo would be friendlier.

Hawaii 2000nm this way!!

Had our first ‘proper’ meal on the boat, played cards, generally filing in time and we are all keen to get going tomorrow, albeit a bit nervous.
