Footnotes from Fiji



Bula!
Once again posting from Fiji, where I’m enjoying the tropical breezes and smiling faces.

It was good to meet up with the old gang at the Savusavu Yacht Club
Tim, Geoff and Ron

The Three Musketeers – Tim, Geoff and Ron
at the yacht club.


After delivering “Flip Flop Fly” to the Savusavu Junior Sailing Club and watching some great Laser sailing performances from the kids I decided to give it a go myself.
Couldn’t beat the expert young sailors in the races, but had lots of fun anyway.

More photos of Junior Sailing racing here.

I also had a chance to try out my new camera and although I’m still learning the ropes
I’m quite pleased with the results so far, especially my sunrise and sunset pictures.
So sit back, relax, and enjoy:

It was great to have the family on board again for a short holiday this month, (see Freewind’s blog),
 and it all ended too soon as the girls had to get back to school.
Time sure flies when when the sun’s shining and the scent of fresh tropical flowers is in the air!

Before you know it, it will be time to set sail south back to New Zealand.
But until then, greeting from Fiji to you all,
