Evan insists on ‘passage food’, even on a three hour motor in a completely flat calm atoll. Kids, eh? The last of the cup noodles, @dantelle_xo @sv_catchingup !

The wildlife seem to choose one boat in the anchorage every morning. It is our turn this morning. Shoals of tiny fish, lots of massive fish and birds, all squawking and splashing. Fascinating to watch. A proper treat in the morning. (Except for the bird poo all over the pulpit)🤪

Sitting in the cockpit at 5.30am, drinking tea and eating cornflakes with UHT milk, while reading through the BBC news website. Stabbings, hurricanes, national lockdowns, shootings, increased terror threat levels, a global pandemic and that US election. A rain shower blows over us and this appears. A moment of calm in a crazy, crazy world.

There’s only one actual road on this atoll. And no roundabouts. Quite a few speed bumps though, so it would be a shame to waste a road sign. 😁

We’re making the most of being in the ‘big town’ to do chores and boat jobs. Gas cylinders filled ✔️ The second photo shows how butane cylinders are filled here. Hang a full tank upside down and ‘pour’ the gas into the other tank. Simples. 😁
