on the move - Orca III

hey all we are heading to Nomuka Iki in the Ha Apai group of Tonga this will be our last stop before Nukalofa where we will leave to NZ. looks like Nov 6 is our time frame, but the weather keeps changing. here's our long and lat for today 20*12'.70 s 174* 42.50W we are motor sailing at 6 knots , very little wind and we are making a ton of water!
Just caught a small tuna!! hoping for a mai mai - the Ha'Apai group of islands are beautiful and we sure have enjoyed the ones we have been at. had a bon fire and potluck on the beach last night. lots of singing and guitar playing. we saw some fruit bats in the previous anchorage. those were very cool. this is short , will update some more later. too hot down here with the engine running

hugs
Dionne
