Right on schedule the shuttle bus dropped Tom and Amanda at the Capitainerie at the head of the Visitors' Dock in Port Moselle. They had come on a three hour flight from Sydney and the "Arc en Ciel" people-mover met them at the airport and got them the 50km from Tontouta to Noumea in about 40 minutes. The kids were feeling pretty energetic so we took them for a couple of hours walking around Centre Ville and the surrounds, then came back "Au Bout du Monde" for a welcome beer then down the dock to "Destiny" where we had sundowners with venison sausage and St Marcellin cheese. Tough life.
The guys will be with us until Sunday next so we'll be tourists for the week. We'll put up some more pictures as we go along.
Cheers from us
