Or not...

As always we are slaves to the weather. Philippe, the harbormaster here at Taina Marina convinced me that this was not the week to go to Moorea. The French meteorology office forecasts 30kts of wind from the east, shifting to north east for most of the week. This makes the anchorages in Moorea less appealing. Since we have not yet toured Tahiti, we decided we'd take this week and tour the island.

Tomorrow we move to an inside berth where New Morning will be well protected while we make a quick trip to the states later this month. And when we get back we'll have a calm berth in which to make a few repairs. Then we'll be off to the leeward islands, or the Iles sous le vent.

Since we'll be hanging around Tahiti this week I'll make updates to the site and upload some photos from the last few months.
