STILL IN FRENCH POLYNESIA

Mandrake is still in French Polynesia ( big place) – currently in Raiatea which is just south of Bora Bora. We will be exiting this part of the world in about a weeks time and sailing west for the Cook Islands and Tonga – a trip of about 1300 nm in all.
For those of you who are huddling under blankets in Melbourne, it has not been all roses here in paradise. The last week has brought strong winds up to 30 knts and rain – making it cold for these parts.
Under the title of Photos in Raiatea, take note of global warming effect on a house here – one more fraction of a degree of warming and he will be underwater. Though he does have position.!!
