Yesterday we went ashore and met a few locals at Lamen Bay. We were told that on Monday the Vanuatu police and Australian army were going to arrive for training, so we thought that it would be too crowded for us.

When we went back to the boat we all went for a swim. Wolfgang’s first Pacific swim. Then Wolfgang went for a snorkel. Today we hauled anchor and headed for Paama with Wolfgang at the helm. After Cindy chucked up her breakfast, a little later in the morning she did her first ever mast climb. She was only supposed to go a couple of metres so she could guide us around the reef. But she didn’t stop. Up to the second spreader and without a harness. This evening Wolfgang is cooking on the bbq whilst the girls make the salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
