Pin It

Today was definitely far less eventful than yesterday, but restful. After a lazy morning and a cooked breakfast, we headed ashore to explore the local village, where we found Chez Leah's "restaurant". Again, the term is used very loosely, but we were able to enjoy a delicious mug of Tanna coffee, some cream biscuits and a few complimentary slices of paw paw.

After wandering around the village, we headed back to the "yacht club" where we meet a number of the cruisers from the yachts that had arrived earlier today. We also signed the visitors log book and happened to stumble across Andy and Paul's name, with their yacht Talulah Ruby II at the time, signed on the 2008 / 2009 World ARC rally flag that was on display , the very first rally. Of course we couldn't resist adding our names to the 2016 / 2017 World ARC flag, given that we'd paid for this leg of the circumnavigation, albeit that we arrived a year after the rest of the fleet.

To stretch our legs we then walked to White Bay and discovered a fabulous, but wild and rugged coastline, fringed by a white sandy beach. Being on the windward side of the island, though, it was very windy today, but would make a great place for a beach picnic / barbecue otherwise. Unfortunately, our time in Vanuatu is coming too a close, so we'll have to find another suitable beach in either New Caledonia or Australia.
