Leaving Fakarava, Day at Sea











As we left the lagoon last night, the sun was setting and of course, we were on deck. The photo shows how narrow the coral reefs are that have remained after the volcano has eroded away. About every 15 years, a storm will wash over the entire atoll.

Today is at sea, giving time to attend more lectures, read, art projects, cooking demo, and looking over the side seeing the beautiful patterns & colors (photo) that the boat makes as we cruise along. We also took a tour of the galley operation; photo is one of the head chiefs showing off some of the exotic fish that they get to work with in this region.

Location:South Pacific
