on route to Tonga

we are about 12 hours out of Tonga, We have passed the international date line so now are a whole day ahead of you ( actually more like 20hrs ahead)
We left Niue around 11am Niuean time- had the wind behind us so we chose to go a little more north to have the wind on our hind starboard quarter. we are now wing on wing as the wind as slowed down as has the seas. We broke a piece of our genoa roller furling - will need to get that shipped to us!! have temporarily fixed the problem and we can still use the genoa.

we have all been sleeping a lot through out the day and also a lot of reading. My poor kids have all taken their turn with being seasick. Not Steve this time - sturgeron working great.

we will be meeting up with Malachi and O'vive and Tin Soldier tomorrow. hope to catch Dorothy Marie soon!! time to play some music!
