ooph! Today has been as windy as yesterday and it has only just calmed down, the sea is a bit mad still so we've pretty much been in the saloon all day. The kids are just about bouncing off the walls, having been deprived of their daily romp on the trampoline - it's just been too rough to go out of the cockpit today. At least it's getting calmer now and so tomorrow they will be able to get out into the fresh air. And then we should be getting in to Opua in the early hours of Saturday morning. We've been on a daily SSB net in the morning with other boats heading down and now we have been checking in with Russell Radio who let customs know our ETA - it's nice to have that extra bit of contact every day. We're busy making popcorn and flapjacks before we get it all confiscated. Tomorrow is definitely going to have to be a potato day. Current position: 32.23S 175.36 190 miles to go....
