A week later...

It'll be a week tomorrow that we've been in Fiji. You think we'd have more to show for it. And we do if you look carefully. Britannia has almost doubled her solar power- we've got juice even on the rainy days! And Krister changed the oil and the impellar for the first time since Mexico. Also got the windlass working- we think. We're on a mooring ball in town now so the real test will have to wait. We've gone to a few rally functions, met a few new cruisers, walked thru town and eaten a lot of Indian curry. So all those projects are done. We're caught up!

So now we relax... Well not exactly as we'd planned. You know how you always get sick on your day off? Same goes when you're a cruiser. I went first with a sore throat, swollen glands and complete exhaustion . I slept almost 3 days straight- which kept me out of the way while Krister did boat projects. He's said he couldn't relax with all those "to-do's" hanging over him. So just when I'm coming back to life, he's out of commission. Low-grade fever, tired with just a whiff of nausea. Hope it passes as quickly as mine did. It's been rainy the past few days, but sunshine is in the forecast.
