Whirlwind? Feels like it. Didn’t we just get to New Caledonia a few days ago?? A whirlwind of friends, kids and baguettes, some spectacularly abysmal attempts at parlant français. The crew is in absurdly high spirits. It is IMPOSSIBLE to replace Glenda (of course!!!) but Richard showed early form with a stir fry to die for last night. Andrew was taking careful notes. Two hours from now we’ll be clear of the lagoon and out in 30 knots and 3 metre / 8 second waves. The boys seem happily unfazed by the prospect of food and furniture flying around the wheel house. We’ll see….. We’re headed for Coffs, but if the weather doesn’t suit, we’ll go to Brisbane instead. Should be on land by next Sunday. In the meantime, we’ll keep SPOT up to date each day, so if you happen to wonder where we are, just click on the “Where are we” link on the main blog page. Over but not out….
