Finally some good weather.

After a days fishing and with the weather holding out it was looking perfect for a good weekend. The girls kept to the liquid theme and had a girls night out. They frocked up and head out on the town leaving us boys at home to mind the kids. Not a drama, I /we can do this. They started their night at Re-load Bar, followed by dinner at Cottage Breeze then back to drinks and dancing at Re-load, then onto the Billfish Bar. Luckily everything closes at midnight on Saturday's. While all this was going on us boys decided as the weather was still calm, and the "Blah Blah" was fuelled and ready to go, we should all head out to Pangi for our Sunday recovery. We thought we were smart and noting where the girls had been last night, we decided on a lunch time start.
 Annie was back in Tonga so the girls got all dressed up, even heels. Not so good at the Billfish as the dance floor is partially a coral floor but they all looked great. Hannah (the 5th member of the FAB 5) now lives back in NZ so we pulled in her stunt double - Leilani, who lived next door to Hanah here in Tonga. Don't worry, we had a drink for you HWTF!

 Sal was the on call Taxi driver with the Bongo van at their beck and call. The smile was no extra.

The next morning we snapped off a shot of our fishing club from the water, doesn't look so flash from this angle but a great little watering hole all the same. 


 The kids got the half price seats and on each of the three runs Lyndon dragged a couple of kids behind the boat on the biscuit.


 Dave brought some learner skis so the all the kids had to have a go. Lyndon only made it out of the boat a few times during the entire day. The smaller kids opted for the knee board or biscuit.

 Em was first up and made it look so easy.

 Dyl was next, not so easy but he had a fun time trying to drown himself and not let go of the rope.

 After all the kids had had a few goes it was Dave and Lyndon's turn to see if the mighty BLAH BLAH could pull them out of the water. To everyones surprise it even managed to get Lyndon out on one ski.

 The two Em's building sand castles.

We stayed later than usual as the high tide was late in the arvo and it's always the best time to be at Pangi.
