We have spent the week at the outer anchorages, enjoying the different islands. The weather has not been favourable - with high winds and big seas, so we have spent more time hiking on land, than doing water activities. Scott and Cindy from Beachhouse are with us in the anchorages and on Sunday we are going out again on their boat, with a guide, to go whale swimming again. The winds are forecast to die down then.
Tomorrow night we are going to a charity Tongan feast at one of the outer island. Their goal is to raise enough funds to rebuild their wharf, which was destroyed in a cyclone. In a case of "it really is a small world", the Canadian government aid program is matching any raised funds 3 to 1.
This is our last week here in Tonga, as we fly home next Friday. We'll head back to town on Monday to get the boat ready to leave for the season. I'll do the final update next Thursday.
Until then.....have a great weekend.
