We’ve gone back out cruising after three days in Opua for some repairs, to pick up some supplies and to miss a weather system that blew through. Now, once again, we’re headed south, eventually to end up in Tauranga (but there are about a million places to see on the way down!).
“How is he posting this?” you ask. I’m using my birthday present (ok, it’s not for another week). We got an Iridium satellite phone and Cyndi said it could be my present this year. Yea! I just got the data connection working last night. Ah, the cruising life – working on difficult technology while anchored in beautiful bays. I guess I should take a picture of the bay and use it as my computer’s desktop wallpaper so I can at least get a glimpse of what’s around us 😉 -Rich
