Pin It

Our plan was to stay in Musket Cove until Thursday, allowing Elaine to savour a few more days in her "happy place", as well as allow an impending storm to pass. She, however, woke to the suggestion that we leave today. Clever Captain Roy knew that if he didn't "rip the plaster off", he was in for a struggle to get Elaine to leave Malolo Lailai Island. With that, we weighed anchor and set off for Denarau, where we'll spend our time finishing off the outstanding yacht projects and getting ready to leave for Vanuatu.

Thank you to all the staff at Musket Cove Island Resort and Yacht Club for all the wonderful memories and making us feel so welcome over these past few months. Who knows, maybe one day, we'll be back to live on that lot of land we've had our eye on since first arriving on the beautiful island of Malolo Lailai.

As with everything in life though, "as one door closes, another one opens". Leaving Fiji and working our way to Australia brings us closer to seeing our loved ones again and the photograph we just received of our beautiful twin grandsons is certainly an inspiration to move on.

This afternoon we enjoyed lunch at Cardo's, then, while Elaine finished sorting out our latest photographs for the website Gallery over a cappuccino and a decadent hot chocolate brownie, smothered in hot chocolate sauce and accompanied by fresh cherries, honeycomb and ice-cream, Roy collected our new house batteries.

After we returned to Paw Paw to drop everything off, we headed back to shore in order to enjoy sundowners at the Westin Resort and Spa, but ended up making an unplanned detour to enjoy a drink aboard Two Can with Margaret and Barry, whom we first met on the dock of Port Denarau Marina a few weeks after arriving back in Fiji. It was Margaret who stopped to ask if Elaine was ok having seen her in floods of tears because all the muscles in both her legs had just gone into spasms following an early morning walk. At least on this occasion we could enjoy a laugh together!
