Our journey in Mai Miti this season has come to an end, but the new adventure in Surprise begins. Surprise(Schumacher 46) is an incredible racing/cruisingboat that is full of all sorts of goodies, including a blender for ice cold tropical smoothies underway:-) We were fortunate enough to have met the boat owners, Steve and Susan, months ago in Tonga and now we get the pleasure of delivering their boat down to New Zealand for them. We've spent the last week or so with them going through the boat and they've been absolutely wonderful in every way. Now we're just waiting for my dad to arrive here in Fiji as he will be taking the boat to New Zealand with us(whoo-hooo!), and off we go. I think Mai Miti is a little jealous that she's not coming along, but we're going to leave a Sevusevu with the guys here at the harbor so they keep a special eye on her! You can check out Steve and Susan's website at www.sailblogs.com/member/surprise for more info and pics of Surprise. Also new pictures up on flickr at http://www.flickr.com/photos/26977831@N04/
