So you’ve read Gary’s email on he and Mike sailing from Wellington to Tauranga. They had to deal with a leak in the boat but luckily all worked out and they are safe. Mike was able to fix the problem once they made it to Tauranga. I drove again to Tauranga and met up wth them there. We were able to meet up again with our new friends Rose and Roger there. We have since moved on and sailed to Mercury Island and on to Kawau Island….where we were in January. We came here to meet up again with some New Zealand friends, Trish and Michael. We will continue on Sunday (Easter) back to Whangarei (boatyard) where we will pick up some parts for the boat, etc. We are hoping to have time to finish touring the North Island before setting off for Fiji end of April early May…We are looking forward to Mike’s friend and his wife coming to Fiji with us and then Mike’s daughter Amie and her family will join us in Fiji as well!!!
Gary is off hiking and Mike is off fishing with Michael to catch dinner…I am enjoying alone time! Happy Easter to all and may the East Bunny be good to you. Life is Good!…
