Fresh Fruit, Cold Beer, and People

In spite of the bit of turmoil thrown at us on our last day at sea (more later), we made it safe and sound, making landfall in Hiva Oa on Saturday morning. I've only just been able to get internet- most things are closed all weekend- but know we are arrived and anchored among some 30 other cruising boats amid the steep and beautiful cliffs of the South Pacific Isles. Green is a magnificent color!
I promise to provide a real post soon but now I am on a French keyboard and typing is painfully slow. Many thanks for all the comments- we truly appreciate hearing from home!

Cheers!!!

  2. Gongrats ! ! ! Have a cold one, . . . hell have more than one. Enjoy, rest and restock provisions. My best French saying is: "Vous Etes Jolie". Use it often and loud and clear.

  5. Congratulations Connor, Taylor and Dana!
    You must be so happy. What was it like to walk on earth again after 29 days at sea?
    We are thrilled for you. You might be surprised to know how many of our friends are following your adventure.
    Taylor, thank you for your email.... and your call on Mother's Day! I did send an informative reply to your email but sadly it bounced back. I think of you all many times a day and love any and all forms of communication. Keep 'em coming!
    Love to you all!

  6. So glad to hear that you have reached land; the Southern Cross is a marvel and beautiful. As I follow you on the tracking site, I'm impressed to see that you are ''almost there''.

    Please be safe. I always enjoy reading your blog and comments.
