Lexington - 6/4/17 Tonga



We are at an anchorage called Coral Garden in Tonga. It was a short distance travel from the port city of Neiafu which was the checkin port. The whole area is lots of islands and interesting spots within very short distances. It is an excellent area if the weather is good and you do not want to sail long distances. We have only been to one spot so we do not know that much. Unfortunately we need to be back in Neiafu Wednesday to do checkout and skippers briefing for the next leg. We had Edwin and Bianca from Zeeland over for dinner last night. We were looking for an opportunity to share some of our wahoo that we had caught earlier. We had a lovely dinner. Edwin and Bianca are a very interesting couple who are world travelers. He is from Holland originally but has lived in Italy for a long time. Bianca is from Italy. They took off from Italy in the summer of 2016, I think. They did the ARC rally to get from Europe to the Caribbean. They have not decided if they are going to complete the whole World ARC. They may wait out in Australia and start again next year or they may have their boat shipped back home or they may complete the whole trip or they may sail back to Europe from St Helena. Too many choices and hard to make decisions. May fair winds fill your sails with good easy decisions! Bob
