Pastime of Sydney is off sailing again in 2007. A somewhat smaller trip this year compared with
almost seven months away in 2006.
We are sailing from Pittwater to Coffs Harbour, where we hope to clear Customs and Immigration
during the week of July 2nd (slipped a week because of delays fixing a last minute problem). It will then take about seven days to sail to Noumea
in New Caledonia. From there, we hope to circumnavigate New Caledonia in a clockwise direction,
taking in a number of the less-visited villages on the Northern part of Grand Terre. We
will also be visiting the outlying islands including the Loyalty Islands.
We hope to return mid to late September.

Daughter #3: I saw a beautiful sunrise over Collaroy Beach this morning. However, I was on a bus on the way to work, not on a yacht in the Pacific! In other news . . . Britain's Prince Charles graced his wife, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, with something different for her 60th birthday — a rare breed ram and ewe. What a great idea for a present! (07/26/07)
