We have visited five of the islands – the photos in the Picture albums tell the story.
The weather is the same most days though we have had a bit of rain – good to wash the salt off the boat. The sea temperature is about 33 degrees – very warm – we don’t swim that much as there are munchies around. We swam off a beach a few days ago which was very pleasant and in a very cold swimming hole just behind the beach on one of the islands. Robert and I scrambled our way up to a waterfall with a pool at the base of it for a look and a swim.

the beauty of the Islands
Tahiti - Cook Isl (for a rest from night sailing)
