We arrived off Savusavu at 1957 GMT, or just before 8pm Fiji Time.
And as predicted, it was well after dark, and we have had to anchor off and await the new day. We followed Yacht Windflower in and chose to anchor near her, rather than in our chosen spot. This was just as well. Daylight has revealed a mass of fisherman's buoys around the Skipper's spot, and he wouldn't half have got into trouble if he'd tried to drop the hook there in the middle of the night.
So a spot of breakfast awaits, then the dear old (and I mean old, Ed) Skipper can go and fight the bureacrats and get us cleared in. Then we can all leave the boat and enjoy the delights of Fiji. From here it looks great - a beautiful bay, and what looks like a steaming thermal spring just on the edge of it.
All well with us, and best wishes to everyone..James, Chris, Elizabeth and Will
