Day 357, Year 1: Back in Neiafu Harbor
Date: Tuesday, October 10, 2006
Weather: Partly Sunny, Partly Cloudy Day
Location: Port of Refuge, Neiafu, Vava’u Group, Tonga
Early this morning, we motored ashore and hiked to an abandoned resort. The path up was still well kept, and we really enjoyed exploring an area that was not long ago inhabited. We met Mike and Deirdre from Cheshire Cat and Nick and Gertrude from Tartufo on our way up, but once at the top, we had the abandoned resort to ourselves. It was great fun exploring.
Soon after we returned to Windbird, we pulled up anchor and headed back to Neiafu. We hoped to rendezvous with Windcastle, send a few picture folders to the website, drop off our garbage, and then head back out to the out islands. We successfully made contact with Windcastle and also got to see Jamie and Lucie from Savoir Vivre. We haven’t seen them since the Marquesas and it was great to connect once again. Tomorrow morning we will send the photo folders and drop off the garbage.
Our plan is to head back out to the out islands tomorrow, but who knows what tomorrow will bring.
