Day 1 - Western Samoa to Fiji

LATITUDE: 14-13.22S; LONGITUDE: 174-22.12W
Miles traveled in 24 hours: 131
Miles to Savu Savu, Fiji: 399

Well, the forecast for the first day was perfect - except for the wind. It didn't show up until 9pm last night, so we did 11 hours of motoring. Oh well. But, it was a beautifully calm day and no rain, plus we got to see a turtle and some dolphins along the way. All in all, a pretty good day.

Today, the winds are much better - averaging about 15 knots - so we are moving right along. Plus, the sun is shining and the waves are behaving (for the most part). Hope the good weather continues all the way to Fiji...

We have a busy day planned on Moondance - eating, napping, reading, and sailing of course. Wish you were here to hang out with us!
