It was a relaxing Saturday with great weather so a good chance to dry clothes and sails. 
On Saturday night the crew attended the family service of Kenith Henry who hosted a kai kai for the Marumaru atua. The crew would like to show their appreciation and condolences to the Henry family.

During this time Shane and myself, CIVS crew members, were on the vaka night watch where we had a Aitutaki chilly but calm night up on deck.

Sunday morning we attended Ziona tapu church and then rested for the remainder of the day. 
All through the weekend the people of Aitutaki have been dropping food off for our voyage and cannoe. We would like to thank the people of Aitutaki for the food they have provided us for our voyage up to Tongareva.
