Original account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

2014 Across the Pacific Fiji
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I stayed in Tonga to wait for some friends who where late in arriving. We had a great reunion then I left for Fiji. The sail was just four days of fast down wind sailing. I went straight to Vuda Point to clear in having spent some time in Suva Suva many years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The marina had not changed neither had the town of Lautoka. I had the engine fixed which cost a few pennies but Malua was back again in cruising mode.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Denny had arranged to fly to Vanuatu but due to my delay she purchased the extra flights and flew to Fiji to spend two weeks on Malua. Did we have a great time after being apart for many months – yes
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I then prepared for the passage to Vanuatu. Not much to say
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow Malua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
