Bidding farewell to The Kingdom of Tonga.

One last Expedition-Robinson-like beach walk, one last mind-blowing snorkel session in a thriving coral garden, one last exhilarating whale watch, and one last Tongan sunset before we join the humpback whales in their migration down south. O2 has received a thorough spring cleaning, grib files have been downloaded, our weather router guy Chris Parker has been activated, 2 new audio-books are in stand-by, our Starlink has been switched to ocean-ready-mobile-priority (limited and more expensive data), the glorious Kingdom of Tonga has officially cleared us out and we have officially notified the New Zealand authorities of our estimated time of arrival, weather permitting. A blank sheet in our ship’s logbook is about to receive its first entry of many. We will keep you posted of our two-legged (“leg” as in “sea passage”) South-Pacific progress.
