Mystery Island, Vanuatu

The winds and weather was so rough last night that there was talk of not being able to tender today, which would mean another day at sea and no stop on Mystery Island. : ( Luckily… the weather today was okay, and I caught a tender boat over to the island around 11am. My roommate Candice and I were delighted at how pretty the island was. There are no inhabitants (the natives come over from the neighboring island), and you can walk around the island in less than one hour. Many people were snorkeling, relaxing on the beach, or strolling around the little market. Around 2pm on our way back to the boat the storm came in, we got absolutely soaked while waiting for the tender! We then experienced an extremely rocky ride to the ship, where I grabbed lunch in the Lido and watched the rain fall on the windows.
