We are now anchored in paradise!
Having left Marina Taina at 0745 pleased that the generator was fixed but now running with two batteries due to the third giving up on us.
We picked our way through the reef
leaving Tahiti behind.
and crossed over to Moorea about 10 miles away
Our destination was Baie d'Opunohu but we took a detour through the reef into Cook's Bay
and then in and out of the reef again to Baie d'Opunohu
where lying at anchor was Christopher flying the RCYC ensign and pennant
We are anchored, along with Camelot, off a sandy beach in the lagoon nearby.  
The landscape is dramatic and beautiful and all is calm within the reef.
