During the course of the day Sun Princess maintained a south-south-westerly course. At 9am we were 45 miles west of Capricorn Seamount and 54 miles east of Vava'u in Tonga. We passed between the Tongan Islands and the Tongan Trench throughout the day, ans at 4.45pm we passed 23 miles east-south-east of Eua Island.

We crossed the International Date Line at 7.30am this morning, but the ships clock/calendar did not be change until after bedtime. So we sailed through the day in a 'twilight zone' ooooooh ahhhhhh :)

Another relaxing sea day, so the usual relaxing stuff. It was a simply stunning day again, lovely and warm, the slightest of breezes, and the Pacific Ocean was a flat millpond, with an ever so slight swell, so many an hour whiled away on pool deck today...looooovely :)
