It sounds like you could have been in your own kitchen at home and just hollered out to Mum, “hey where’s the cheese”. LOL Sorry to hear about the English homework. Didn’t even have any luck fishing. There are those kind of days, but it will get better. Yes, there’s always tomorrow. Glad to read that you made it past Minerva Reef. I read some nasty stories on other blogs about that reef. <br />Question: When I first saw the map the line indicated that you were between Fiji and Tonga and a little bit south. (Minerva Reef) Later when I looked at it it appeared that you were swinging south of Tonga and going around the east side of the Island. Did you change your route or is that just a latter entry? <br />I’m getting a little envious reading all these blogs where people are telling of their sailing stories. I look back and think, maybe that’s what I should have done, but I was a biker, and I loved the open road. I guess we all have our own thing. But with detailed coverage of your voyage I can sail with you, and I am enjoying it. Thank you.<br />Take care, be safe and stay alert and don’t forget to wear your harness.<br />May God be with you and watch over you and may the angels keep your sails full. I will keep you in my prayers.<br />Michael (74) from Kingwood, WVhezakiah299https://www.blogger.com/profile/13831171696178539958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433355938514487084.post-37674100126637288562009-11-03T22:02:32.217+10:002009-11-03T22:02:32.217+10:00Hello Jessica,

Each night I kiss my girls goodnight, I whisper "goodnight Jessica" to you. As with many who write to you, we are looking out for you always. We have adopted you as our own, and wish only the best for your future. We are proud of what you are doing and can't wait for you to be home. Don't worry about how long it takes, as long as you are safe and happy, and Ella is happy too!<br />Love and cuddles from one of your many "mums" xoxoxo<br />Happy sailing<br />Vicki, Michael, Laura & Rebekah and KaitlinVickinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433355938514487084.post-31361809465671202982009-11-03T17:51:27.714+10:002009-11-03T17:51:27.714+10:00Gday mate..wish I were there..What a great trip..S...Gday mate..wish I were there..What a great trip..So much to see and learn..I hope all is well with you and your little ship and continues to go well..

I notice that you write like there are others on your boat. You say "We are sailing to...". Are you doing that out of respect for your shore team? I'm just curious.
