Safran bien arrivé à Port Vila (Vanuatu)

Nous voici bien arrivé après une bonne traversée de 3 jours et demi depuis Vuda jusqu'à l'île de Tanna au sud des Vanuatu.
Nous sommes montés de nuit au volcan Yasur en activité. Très beau spectacle de lave qui sort et explose. Puis rapide traversée de 24h par forte à très forte mer et 30 à 40 noeuds de vent et arrivée depuis hier soir à Port Vila.
Le temps est couvert et nous attendons enfin le soleil pour aller faire de la plongée.
