We are still in Apia. Having a look at the weather before setting off, showed the swell was predicted to get higher than previously predicted. This would have made it an uncomfortable trip to Wallis, so Andrew decided to leave departing till the next weather window. A good decision after talking with other yachties just arrived who’ve had high winds and swells, some even sustained damage on their way here. The next weather window at this stage looks to be next Monday at the moment.
Time to do a bit more exploring of Upulo and to catch up on some work on the boat. The South Pacific games are being held here commencing 7th July so there is a lot of athletes arriving and a lot of work being done by the Samoans to welcome the athletes. Had torrential rain yesterday followed by a stunning sunset last night.
We are getting recognised in Apia – Stella by the samosa guys and Andrew by the homemade lemonade guy!
Will keep you all posted.
