Day 156 Newspaper coverage

Rainy days are good for something and this one was no exception. There were a dozen chores to be done including catching up on the blog and doing some shopping in preparation for the next passage. Most everything is closed on Sunday in Samoa and Monday is a public holiday (Father's Day) so if we are going to leave on Monday we will need to get any necessary supplies today and tomorrow. I spent the day tying to track down a few last items.
The paper come out today and again on page 2 there was a half a page dedicated to Southern Star with a picture of Mark, Kurt and Andy giving a "thumbs up" in appreciation for the good police work and the support of the community. The front Page even had a banner that said "Yachties happy". We may be still missing a few items but at least we did not go without leaving a mark.
