We anchored fore and aft in a very crowded
anchorage. It was the best decision to wait until daylight.
It is 9 am local time, and we will go ashore to
check in, meet the Polynesians and hopefully find some fresh food to buy.
We are surrounded by a high rocky shore covered in lush green vegetation and
some beautiful houses overlooking the bay. The sun is out, it is very hot and
humid and
the top of the mountains are covered in thick
clouds.
We did it! Our longest ocean passage in the largest
ocean of the world!
