After a few days of catching up with the family, seeing our friends, celebrating Paul's 65th birthday, stocking food and doing laundry in Atuona, we were delighted to returning to this beautiful and calm bay. Here we have the pleasure to swimming in the turquoise clear water between jobs and cleaning the hull, while the growth is fresh and easy to scrub off.
 
At the moment we are living of fresh grapefruits, mangoes, lemons, coconuts and bananas. The beauty and lush land of the Marquesan bursts with abundance, which the locals are so happy to share with us.
We are preparing to sail North to Ua Pou tonight before dawn, as the wind looks promising for the approx. 70 miles journey.
