RAIN

Anchored Position 09° 45.83 N 118° 43.7 E
Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Not a busy week here aboard Po oino Roa as we remain anchored in Puerto Princesa. Kathy did also manage to come down with whatever this "bug" is and we are now both in recovery. It seems that it has affected the whole fleet of yachties here.

We have had quite unsettled weather lately. I guess that is what you would call rain all day today. First has been a change in the monsoon from the southwest to the northeast. We had hoped to be further to the north before this change but it will be what it will be. Next affect the weather was a low pressure area forming to our east and moving across the central Philippines. It stayed a low pressure area until making it to the wast of us where it is now a tropical storm ready to impact Vietnam. such is the weather here that they hay tropical systems about nine months a year. Hey it keeps us on our toes and watching the clouds.

So with the "bug" aboard Kathy has been watching her movies and I reading, no junk but a little of Jules Verne, Mysterious Island. Having several thousand books on a Kindle comes in handy now and then.

We now hope to get moving once again soon.
