Day 2 of Trip to Fiji

The waves are huge and definitely not going in the direction we have to go in order to avoid a few uncharted reefs, so we are pretty much beside ourselves, thinking that sailing is probably the most uncomfortable not fun thing ever to do! Of course, it could be much worse, so, at the same time, we are couting our blessings that we have only 20-25 kt winds, that we are moving quite quickly to our destination, averaging 7.5 kts, and that we are not getting too many waves into the cockpit. One can see the advantage of having a covered cockpit, nice and dry, while traveling in this kind of weather! David has not been feeling well and I hope it goes away soon........sore throat, little temp, achey, and definitely weak. He has been sleeping most of the day and looks like he's feeling better right now. Time for me to get a bit of rest and hope the evening seas mellow out. Right now our location is: S 19 15.8'   W 177 44' We have about 350 miles to go.....ya hoo!
