Tonga The Friendly Islands
Yep yep.After staying in Bora Bora for what seemed an eternity, we left for Tonga. After 10 dreadful days at sea we arrived in what James Cook called "the friendly islands". Absolutely a wonderful place, and I'm just happy wherever the locals don't speak french! The first dude we met when we went ashore in Tonga was Norwegian Kjell. Felt rather strange talking to another norwegian. Last time we met norwegians was back in the Carribbean! Tonga was Andreas' last port of call. so we said our goodbyes with lots and lots of beers while Niels and me welcomed our new crewmember - Lucy - on board.
(she threatened to beat me up if I didn't write anything nice about her in my blog, had to scour my computer to find a photo where she doesnt make a face - this was as close as I could get). Lucy is staying on board untill Fiji (next stop), where the three of us will all leave the boat. Tonga has been a lot of fun, dinghyracing, soccermatch (england vs the rest), drinks, bbq's. The places just get better and better the closer it comes to the return home. Strange stuff.Arild

I morgen tidlig reiser jeg til Bergen for å besøke Oda, er tilbake på tirsdag. Er fortsatt ikke helt trygg på at det er den 6.juli dere kommer til Norge, Niels mente den 7. Vil gjerne ha en beskjed til...Det var så koslig å møte Niels, nå er du litt nærmere også på sett og vis!
Hils Lucy, vakkert bilde av ei flott jente! She didn`t make a face! Klem fra mamma som spent venter på å få deg hematt!
And also last message from daddy !
Ellen og jeg reiser til Budapest i morgen - og er tilbake når du er vel akklimatisert. Gleder meg til å få deg hjem - tusen erfaringer rikere - og å få litt tid sammen med deg før du/vi begynner å jobbe igjen. Hva med en fjelltur i sommer ?
