Press OCEAN7 - Against the wind around the world Contact
After four months, we have now reached the most northern islands housetrip of Vanuatu and finally we see again real "South Sea Islands" uninhabited and with white icing sugar beach. Before us, the waves breaking on the reef slope, but we are together with the La Gitana well protected behind them. The wind whistles us specifically about the ears, but it rocks relatively little. The first day we have not so much of this glorious sight, because we both are with high fever ailing. Likely housetrip from the many contact and the eternal (and hardly preventable) shaking hands with Ni-Vanuatu to come, for the trunks all more or less and handkerchiefs are unknown here, so everything is wiped off by hand.
Almost every child even if ever so trying to keep a runny snotty nose and aloof, this is not quite so simple. Michaela and Volker is not so great. Michaela was suspected of having malaria at the hospital of Port Vila, but fortunately it was "only" Dengue fever - not much better. For an island walk but the power is just enough yet and it really pays off. Fine white sand, turquoise water and lots of shells. housetrip Two days later we are all back so well that we can celebrate a sumptuous beach BBQ with our self-caught fish on sticks and the last steaks.
Again, there are tons of cockles and so there are both fantastic ships Spagetti Vongole (although the auspuhlen already quite work). Even all the time attracts us Ureparapara, an extinct volcano and collapsed into itself in its crater you can go straight and very quiet and scenic location. The village here gets only three times to see a supply housetrip ship and yachts not get lost here so often here, since the island is outside the main route in the year. So you're thankful for everything up to batteries and T-Shirts and we are warmly welcomed housetrip here by the sugar from the people and led around the village.
However, a last short stop in the Torres Islands on Tegua must be even, since the Hayter Bay will be one of the most beautiful bays. There already Detlef and Beate / SY-Kira waiting for us. But it is also really very lonely and idyllic housetrip here. The locals come only occasionally to fish or coconut crab catch her, as just and we exchange cigarettes and cosmetics from one of these crabs. These animals have very strong and sharp scissors housetrip and so they are placed well tied on board. The next day we want then grill them. We offer in a bucket on the floor of the cockpit, but once it starts it is incredibly dark to rumble.
We still control their bonds before we go to sleep. At two in the morning clock wakes me Christopher because he believes that someone has come on board. Armed with a knife and flashlight he represents the A (from) breaker - it is our coconut crab, which has managed to shake off their fetters, to crawl out of the bucket over the cockpit and foredeck whole and now already sitting on the anchor housetrip chain. Just Christoph can still capture and hangs it now, nurmehr with the remaining abdominal binder, our crane (at night it is too cumbersome us her again to fix the scissors with cable ties). So our Houdini now hangs there and threatened anyone who dares near him.
In the morning, however, we need the crane and Christoph turns it around - Hey presto, before Houdini has clawed at our whip antenna and would the 20mm fiberglass tube also tweak without problems housetrip if Christopher did not fast the wire bust, which he had just in the hand, stuck in between would. Incredible forces have these animals and we fight 10 minutes to get rid of it
