Thursday 25 July Darwin departure

Two weeks ago I wrote we had plenty of time but it flew past being busy, busy, busy, boat jobs, shopping, meeting people, shopping, sight seeing, shopping, boat jobs, organising visas, topping off the fuel and cleaning the boat, more seeing friends, more shopping.
Two weeks of enjoying Darwin City but now it's time to move on to new ports; we've cleared out from Customs and plan to leave at dawn tomorrow for the 300 mile trip to Saumlaki on Tanimbar Island. Just over twelve hours before we leave and David's doing a unexpected repair on the manual bilge pump, Jackster looks like someone opened all the cupboards and threw things on the floor and we're invited for farewell drinks at the sailing club. Not much to do there then!
Next update should be from Indonesia, our 34th country on the RTW trip. Selamat tinggal.
