We headed ashore this morning to clear out and get final bits. Clearing out was a straight forward task but meant a walk around town to visit the different offices.
We got some fresh bread and other bits before collecting our washing and heading back to Newt.
After lunch we went alongside the Aquarium dock to fill up with water. It is quite a rickety dock so Karl, Navara offered to come and catch our lines for us. The water pressure wasn't great so it took us about 1 hour to fill up our tanks!!
Back on our mooring buoy Jonny went up the mast to realigned our wind instruments and then Narava came over for a drink to say goodbye before we headed off for Fiji. It was great to meet Linda and Karl and hopefully we might met again if we get to visit New Zealand.
On our way ashore we decided to say hello to an American boat called Honeymoon who we have seen in a couple of places but never met properly. They are a young couple on their honeymoon and are heading to Sydney where they might stay for a while. We ended up having a few drinks with them and had a lovely time so we hope to see them again soon.
We headed ashore for some drinks and dinner with Miss Molly and Narava and had a lovely evening. After paying for our meal we donated our remaining Tongan money to the collection for the ferry disaster which has devasted the area and hope it goes to a good cause. The plan is for the money to be split between the 25 families in the island group who have been affected.
