KEN
Not much to report. No pictures. No exciting events - YEAH!. Fishing boats to dodge every night. Mostly motor sailing with light wind and rain squalls every day, which is a pleasant change from three months of no rain at all in Indonesia. Should clear into Thailand Monday morning and settled into the marina by Tuesday.
