SOS!!! jk

Hi Everybody- 
I have been trying to reach Suzi and David for 24 hours to let them know that I had to cancel our trip to Fiji, but they are at sea, on their way to meet us. I am hoping they might check the blog. Marc fell through the roof of our house in Mexico and shattered bones in both hands; he had surgery this morning. Below is my latest email from David. 
Love to all from Kris, the blogmistress 


Hi Kris- 
We were going to stop at Naigani which was way cool and so peaceful but with the weather change that is coming our way we wanted to get a part of the way across Bligh Water before the north wind kicked in. So we continued across for another 18 miles or so of open ocean and sailed to Makongai. It been a long time since we had sailed; it seemed weird. Our position is 17 26.5 S  178 57.113. It's an old Leper colony that was abandoned but the buildings are still intact and we look forward to checking the whole thing out tomorrow. We dropped anchor just as the sun set which has become a bad habit of ours. That's it for now except as you can see no internet. Hope you sent us an update on poor Marc. My heart goes out to him and tell him not to walk those joists anymore. See ya and will be in touch through sailmail.  
Love, David & Suzi

The one redeeming feature is that Marc did not fall through a roof that David built. Get well soon Marc and love to all. S/V Mandy
