Emma went on a guided day tour on the island. First stop was the reef zoological conservation center where you get up close to baby turtles. The next pond was older turtles getting ready for release into the wild again. They also had coconut crabs, iguanas, fruit bats, a goat and a pig. From there we headed to the Blue Lagoon which is naturally formed water hole, inland, with crystal clear water for swimming. We then went to Eden resort which has a small waterfall cascade you can swim in, we also had our lunch here. Last stop was the Tanna Coffee Factory were we saw how the coffee was made and bought some to take home.
My day on the other Hand, started out good. I went to immigration and sorted out the paperwork for getting Danielle and Wilson (new crew) through customs and onboard Imagine. Then next door to customs to cancel the cruising permit with Emma on board and get a new one with new crew. That’s was relatively easy.
Next call in to DHL to find out where the outboard is. Their tracking app said it was in Port Vila, so I wanted to know of any hold up and when it would be delivered. A simple request.9
When the lady entered the tracking code into their system, her face changed. I heard her say to herself it’s gone back to Sydney. She quickly turned to me and said “it must be on the flight coming in this afternoon. I’ll email you this afternoon with the delivery time.” I’m still waiting for the email and the outboard.
Tomorrow morning I will take another walk across town and ask again where it is, as it was supposed to be delivered before yesterday.
