June 6th, Crossing to Samoa

5:30pm local time:
It is our first full day back at sea on our way to Samoa and we have been enjoying light wind and very calm seas which we hope will continue for the rest of our crossing.

Unfortunately, we ran out of propane in Bora Bora so we were forced to make this crossing without but we still have the electric rice cooker and have been doing pretty well and trying to be creative with meals. We have lots of fresh bread and today I made a Tuna salad for lunch. We also have coconuts gathered from Bora Bora that we have been munching on.

At our current rate of speed, we hope to arrive in about 8 or 9 days for now. Too bad for Will, that won't be soon enough to catch the World Cup match between the USA and England. We will however be looking to see if we can pick up the game on the radio.
