Day 50

Friday 19th June 2009

Pangaimotu Island, Tongatapu

Woke up early this morning and left for Nuku�alofa in a SE of 25 knots with moderate sea swells. 15 hours of hard sailing. Mum managed to make pancakes for breakfast just as we left. We had to tack and beat into wind all the way into Nuku�alofa with waves crashing over the boat. Me and Dad hand steered most of the way. Tom was the only one that was sick though we were all feeling pretty queasy. Mum made some omletes when we arrived at about 2 in the morning. We were all pretty hungry as no one had been up to eating much underway.
