Day 19

1305nm to go

3am

So here I sit once again...oh joy.

You may have noticed I wrote on yesterday's blog about my girl.

Well I have big news....  :-)

Bek and Anthony are going to join us in Fiji, for two weeks, yay yay yay

Am so excited, man I miss my kids, I actually miss them so much it hurts, I just hope the rest of them will be able to join us sometime in the near future.
That goes for The Captains kids as well.

Bek and Anthony were going to meet up with us once we hit Australia, and sail home with us, but with dates and things its looking like we won't be back as soon as we thought.

So I had the idea that maybe they could join us in Fiji instead.
As there is over 300 islands dotted all over the area, and we thought what a great way to be introduced, to our little world, and just island hop, relax, catch up and have fun.
I did try a few options with them, but they balked at doing a ocean crossing with us...hahaha
Can you blame them? But after they get a feel for this life and get used to the boat, they may take us up on it.

Actually today has been so calm out here, we would have to say its one of the best days we have had ever in the ocean.
The Captain has this huge smile on his face, he is so content, and just really loving life at the moment.

I guess we both are, as we are both just so excited that the kids are coming to visit, it has put a very happy buzz on both of us.
The Captain has been reading up all about Fiji, and planing what are the best islands to visit and all that, man we are going to have fun.
          
As for the rest of the day, we have very calm seas, almost no wind at all.

I have really enjoyed today, it's so nice to be able to do stuff without getting thrown around all over the place.
 
Well tomorrow is another day.
