Liz has covered our passage from Nadi to New Zealand in detail in her daily updates. Here are some photos from passage now that we have internet again:

| Less fish on this passage but this tuna provided a few meals ... |
 |
| Lots of time on passage for bike riding - if perhaps a bit short on space. |

| Not more tuna ... |
 |
| And of course a few sunsets. |

Great to watch your family grow up on Fluenta! Happy Sailing!
