Minerva in Colour

Taken from atop the mast

  
No photos can really do justice to Minerva.  Only on a satellite photo can you truly get an idea of how beautiful it is; a ring of reef that is barely emerging during low tide and totally hidden at high.

The two little dots on either side are Bronte & Helmke windsurfing

Glorious sunsets

Bronte and "THAT FISH"

At very low tide

Beautiful colours of a clam

Nada!  Not a single lobster

Bob, the boobie

Bob landed exhausted upon Cooee one morning.  He had obviously been flying for ever and finally found something solid to rest upon.  Sadly, after waddling around on very unsteady legs for a couple of days, he went to meet his big feathered maker in the sky despite efforts to feed and strengthen him.  Too tragic but he was so cute while around.

H's Amazing Sushi!

Nobody outside of the Japanese can do it so well.  H's sushi has always been more than just excellent and we should be following them just to get our regular sushi "fix".

Twins (yeah right!) in skirts

What a gift, thank you so much H.  She presented me with an amazing skirt, just like the one I'd always admired on her.  She has a much sexier figure but I just LOVE it and will wear it to death.

Farewell Cooee

As they head off north towards Tonga, we'll be on our way to Fiji further west.  One of the really great things about this cruising lifestyle is, everything is cast in jelly.  We may just change our minds and follow them northwards.

Picnic on "the beach"

 We were later  joined by a German couple and a Dutch boat so made the most of our tiny "beach" by having a few picnics and a few games of French boules.

The only bit of land (for a few minutes) for miles
