Patsy and Kristin

Jim's sister Pat and his niece, Kristin, joined us on June 19 in Tahiti and stayed with us until July 6, leaving from Bora Bora. We visited Moorea, Huahine, Taha'a, and Bora Bora with them and had lots of fun! The ladies enjoyed relaxing with coffee and the binoculars on deck in the morning, beach excursions and hotel strolls in the afternoon, dips in the cool blue waters of the anchorage, wine and fine food for dinner each night. Several island tours were enchanting, especially the day in Huahine when we finally located the creek with the 'blue-eyed eels'! Well, yes, Pat did get a little seasick on some of the passages and yes, it did rain for several days and we resorted to a Scrabble competition, but all in all, we had a great time during their visit. Their visit was topped off with a wild and wet ride by dinghy to the Bora Bora airport, flying over the clearest turquoise water we had yet seen, all of us scanning the horizon for a clue to help us find the airport dock!
