Mail from The Road, waiting for a cyclone.

For a change the guys on the ground are really helping the cruising yachts, this is on the island of
Rodrigues and well done to them too!

Cyclone Imelda will be over us sometime this afternoon, early evening. The rain, and wind especially is building up quite steadily.
 
With the fantastic help from the Port Captain and his 2nd in command, The ROAD and Shayele are as secure as possible - we all worked for 2 hours in the rain this morning putting more lines out, supplied by the Port Authorities. We have never experienced - anywhere in our travels - such friendly, helpful and willing people.
