WE HAVE ARRIVED IN AUSTRALIA!

Well I'm proud to say we have arrived in one piece and still smiling.  It is great to be on home soil even though we are still 950NM (1759KM) from home in Mackay.  We will enjoy a few days here and then we will head for HOME!

WE ARE IN SAMOA!


It was great to sight land after 7 days travel from Fanning.  The following picture is the island of Pago Pago from the NE aspect.  After a rough couple of days it was very relieving to motor into this picturesque and calm port.
The picture below is the entrance to Fanning Atoll with the water rushing out as the tide runs high to low.
The beautiful Speedbird at anchor in Fanning.
