Ship's Log:
We sailed into Hanavave bay on Fatu Hiva at 0100hrs this morning. Our sail from Mangarava was wonderful we covered the 850 miles in just 5 days. Bonice and I have just retunred from clearing in and have been reaquainted with an old friend from former visits. This woman, Iris, was so thrilled to see Bo again she would regularly touch her shoulder and say "Im so happy,so happy you have come back". Many here remember our previous visits, singing onboard, vollyball and soccer, already they are asking to repeat these past memories. At present the trainees are ashore exploring the island and we do not expect to see them untill supper time.
All are well and have enjoyed this last passage.
