Saturday 29th September

73 days to go.

No matter that it is a Saturday I am here to work. Another hot day, still working down the coast of Choiseul. The Kiwi guys are great. They are all reserves or as they call themselves Territorials. They are really into the work. Very professional. I would be safe anywhere with these guys.

More riding in little boats and walking up big hills in excessive heat and humidity. Still the views are great. There was some relief when we had a down pour we got soaked and were dry in about 30 minutes.
When the army return on board for an evening meal they have arranged some supplementary food supply of the local bread, like a damper made without yeast. This is accompanied by some local lobster. I cannot stand this hardship much longer.
