No not those over exposed royals from across the pond, we are off to visit one of the few kingdoms left. The Kingdom of Tonga.
A week or so in the middle of no where was fun, the lobsters eluded me, the water was so so clear and still a little chilly. The weather gods have spoken and it’s time to move on or hunker down.
Not much protection in the middle of no where, so shelter we shall seek and hopefully the king will have us.
Fiji is seeing the winds now, Tonga and Minerva are next so we are off to Tonga to hide behind a palm tree. It’s a short trip of 250ish miles, and it’s going to be a bumpy ride with 2 meter seas and increasing winds. If all goes to plan, we’ll arrive and still have a day or two to get acquainted with the area before seeking out a palm tree, and who knows the weather will probably change by then.
All good, 188 miles to go, great luminescence in the dark waters this evening. So bright, Just like being at a rave without all the people.
Weather rules all, weather is king the almighty ruler. Wishing you smooth passage and a good sail to safe shelter! Miss you guys.
