We’ve just spent two and a half rather frustrating weeks anchored off the main village Rikitea. When only one out of 3 internet sources shakily works from time to time (the vini spot for wifi seems to be down and the internet via mobile phone network only works occasionally) organising and ordering things becomes slightly tedious, but now we’ve got everything settled.
On the positive side: We did a few beaufitul hikes in the gorgeous late summer weather and even made it up Mt. Mokoto last week. We’ve stocked up on local produce and some imported goods when bot supply ships were here yesterday.
Now we’re ready to leave for the Tuamotus, but there’s no wind in sight on the forecast, so we’ll enjoy some more days here on the outer islands.
