That’s Moorea like it

Above deck, Matt and Joel look on to the next stage of the adventure

Below deck I check the route and computers as we set off for Moorea

Moorea looks full of promise

Approaching paradise?

All action on board as we get closer to Cook’s Bay

Sailing into Cook’s Bay

Cook’s Bay surroundings, as seen through the window in my porthole

Ready to leave the boat that’s been my home for a month. How is there now so much stuff? Didn’t I downsize not that long ago?! Blame the South American markets, I reckon. Nothing to do with me.

The car hire place with one car  and plenty of flexibility on timings

A Polynesian experience would be incomplete without sighting the hibiscus (or the frangipani)

This one road goes right around the island of Moorea

Camping Nelson, Papetoai (ish). Home for a few days.

Finally! White sand beaches. That’s Moorea like it.
