Waiting at Norfolk Island (27/10/09)

Still waiting for the weather to settle down south of us. We're all starting to have a nice time as well. We're taking it in turns to go into town, so someone can watch the boats for dragging anchors. We're having a little dock party this evening with the man who has lent us the car, and some of the other local people, so that should be interesting.
This afternoon we're going hiking around the bay, get some exercise and keep an eye on the boat. The weather here is actually very pleasant, its sunny and cool with clear skies. We had some rain overnight which was one of the fronts passing through, We are just getting the tail end of it here, but reports from boats already down south are not good, high winds from the south (the direction we all want to go), and 5 metre waves. So we'll just wait untill the "farmer leaves the henhouse and goes to sleep!!"
