Saturday 29 Oct. 1977

"Another fine day. Warm weather with slightly choppy seas. Saw a lot of flying fish throughout the day. GQ drill this morning, got a chance to write two letters during it. The whole gang's been working hard getting stuff up (and working). Passed between the islands of Hawaii and Maui late this afternoon. Could see the top of the volcano on Hawaii thru the clouds. We're on the leeward side of the islands. Pull into Pearl Harbor on Tuesday."
