Savusavu

Hi there!  We had quite a ride through the waves coming at us from the north with 18-20 kts of  NE winds and sometimes we felt like we were on a runaway train, going 7.5 kts toward Savusavu, but we made it in time to whisk down the bay just before sunset (although it began to rain instead) and ACappella helped us snag a mooring at Copra Shed, right in front of them. When we pulled in, we were greeted by a staff member who helped us secure our mooring, and Ed picked us up in his dinghy, took us to the showers, and then we walked to a wonderful restaurant for fabulous food. Ed and Cornelia graciously paid for our dinners, thanking David for helping them with their ourboard engine in Minerva Reef. We also got to hug our friends on Adamite and Eagles Wings and it felt like we were home! How fun! This morning is "take care of business time: laundry, fresh veggie/fruit market, and whatever else needs to be done, as well as connecting with friends. The weather looks good right now, so we must take advantage of that.  Love, S
