Safely in SavuuSavu

We are now safely on a mooring buoy in Savu Savu in the calm of an estuary - it us just like being at home ! Great place , a bustling little town along the shores. We have just been into the yacht club for the first hot shower since May! We also had a quick shoping expedition for fruit, vegetables etc
There are many folk here who we have seen in other places and it has been good to catch up hence we have just come back to Katipo for a late blog
Had little sleep in the last 48 hours since stronger winds in latter part of trip than expected. Last night we spent 8 hours hove to in the lee of Taveuni Island which was amazingly successful, sheltered from the 20 to 25 knots with gusts to 30 in the Nanuka Passage.
We did so to take a break and get some rest and also by leaving at midnight we came into Savu Savu mid morning.
Will write more tomorrow - we are just cooking Wahoo for tea - yahoo!
