As dawn broke we were sailing along the north shore of Samoa watching rain clouds gathering to the north east which would sweep over the island imminently. As the rain swept in the island was obscured from view so we waited for the rain to pass to give us a clear run into the harbour at Apia. I was wearing wet weather gear and it was drizzling as the marina launch guided us into our berth. But who cares about a little rain when there are so many friends here to greet us including Lucy & Jamie from Bamboozle, an Amel SM 2000, last seen in the Tuamotus.
By midday we were hooked up to shore power giving the batteries a super charge, the air conditioning was running in all cabins and the rain was falling heavily. It rained for the rest of the day. In the evening Evi (Wonderland) and Jack (Anthem) came over for dinner. Evi cooked us moules mariniere with rice and veggies. It rained through the night.
