Liz wrote about it here: http://sv-fluenta.blogspot.com/2018/07/tongatapu-to-haapai-big-mamas-market.html and now here are some photos:
Tied up at the sea container port to clear customs and immigration. Much quicker than last time and nicer than the nasty dock in the inner harbour. |
The ebbing tide and the big wall made embarking and disembarking a challenge so Johnathan rigged the boom as our swinging bridge. |
The new-to-us outboard died so the little 2hp came to the rescue while I had a part machined. A perfect size motor for Benjamin. |
Playing tourist. The Royal Palace. |
The shop in the market that remembered Liz. |
And Anna, aka Big Mamma, holding Benjamin. The photo in the background is of her champion swimmer son. We spent lots of time at her resort in 2014. |
Always maintenance to catch up on. Benjamin sort of helping. |
And drilling holes. What could go wrong ? Check out his facial expression. |
Fixing the fridge. Again. |
A welcome gift to the Haapai. This fed us for awhile. |
and a welcoming rainbow. |
Always fun to travel with you through your blog and photos!
