We spent a wonderful four nights in Fatu-Hiva and today made the short 50 mile hop to Tahuata arriving at 1pm. Since there is no bank or atm in Fatu-Hiva we obtained all our fruit and souvenirs by trading. Every night just after dark they would practice their Marquesian dance and song and we were there every night! The people of Fatu-Hiva are still as wonderful as I remembered them. I managed to hike up to the cross this time which was quite good after being sedentary for so long. The last night we had Free Sprit and Katy C over for drinks and snacks, something we had been looking forward to since meeting them in the Galapagos.
