We arrived in Fatu Hiva in the French Marquises at about 9:00 local time this morning, or about 1800Z time. It took us, along with others, quite awhile to get to a point where we were happy with our anchor and how it was holding. Geeze(sp) , you'd think for a $k dollars you could get something that would hold you in place! I turns out we were here for the big event of the week, the supply ship. We watched as almost everything under the sun was delivered, two bikes for two kids with two of the biggest smiles, and four trucks that was fun to watch them try to unload on to the quay at low tide. On the supply ship there were about 80 tourist who were doing the Marquisa circuit for two weeks. It was interesting to talk to them and to tag along with some of the activities the locals had planned for them... Ciao JOel
