Underway!

We dropped our mooring at Sam's Tours Palau at 1123 local (0223 UTC) July 28, 2016 bound for Ninigo Islands. As we passed Jake's cove, we said goodbye again and had a good cry.

The day looked stormy but with "weather" we hoped for wind. We have certainly had that with a shift from SE, to S, to SW as we moved offshore Palau. The rocky seas and squalls have made our first meal at sea a challenge and have kept Philip on his seasickness meds, but otherwise all is well. As dawn breaks, we have a favorable current and 15-18 SW with a following sea and the thunderstorms appear to be south of us and moving away. Oh, and we have a BIG brown stowaway that shuffled away faster than we could squash him last night. Ugh.
