My heart lies waiting over the foam... (New Caledonia - Australia)

Image
Day 1. 10 Oct '23 Like two excited children on Christmas Day morning, we jumped from our bed as the sun came up. There’s an unfamiliar tingle fluttering in my stomach.. an air of anticipation.. What’s the reason for all this excitement? Has Santa been? Did it snow? No… Better than that: We’re going to Australia! We’d prepped the boat yesterday, checked out and provisioned. All that was needed to do this morning was slip the dock lines and glide out of the marina. This was a task made significantly easier as a couple of days ago Capt. Chez had decided to turn the boat around to be facing bow out. We’re away from the marina before 6am and on our way to Bundaberg. Within the first ten minutes, we had a visit from two dolphins - surely a good omen for our last passage (… again I must stress: I’m not one for omens and portents… I do however seem to keep mentioning them. Funny that). The dolphins sedately circled the boat then headed on their merry way. We made our way through the pass ...

The Triple Clencher (Fiji to New Caledonia)

Image
  I’m writing this with a belly full of excellent Mexican food. After checking out of Fiji at Denarau, we splashed out on a chilli infused goodbye feast at a nice dockside restaurant. Now back on the boat with lips still burning, we’re saying a very fond farewell to somewhere we’ve been repeatedly delighted by over the last few weeks. I feel like I’ve been saying ‘The people here are lovely’ at every stop along the way since we left the Caribbean - the Fijians however trump all previously mentioned lovely people! Never before have I met such honestly friendly and welcoming souls: a truly happy smile and a ‘Bula’ from everyone you meet. Be that from rough looking randoms at a rundown bus station, to… well.. to literally everyone here! Anyone Fijian reading this (unlikely I know) you are a credit to the island paradise you are lucky enough to call home. Day 1. Weds 27 Sept 2023 We left there this morning, upping anchor as soon as we were both awake. Our destination; Noumea in New Cal...

Island Life (Grenada)

Image
  I find myself in the frustrating situation of having written three days worth of diary, only to inadvertently delete it with a single mis-stroke of my finger. Well here’s the highlights of what you missed: - A typical Grenadian supermarket trip with three full paragraphs bemoaning the available food, and advising people crossing the Atlantic to stock up on provisions in Spain before they come. - Finally decided to buy a reliable outboard motor for the tender. - Finding and agreeing a good price on one from a nice South African cruiser called Chris. - A bus ride into St. George - …and getting my bank card gobbled up by an ATM whilst trying to withdraw the cash for the new outboard. There… we’re back up to date. I hope to be able to collect my bank card from the branch tomorrow morning after it’s cleared out of the machine overnight - fingers crossed. It’s tomorrow morning, or today as I now call it. I take another trip into town only to be told by a smiling apologetic bank clerk ...
