Tahaa

I'm pretty sure this is the yacht club of which Suzi speaks. - K. 

The wind has subsided and we are now tucked farther inside the bay on a different mooring off of Richard's Taravana Yacht Club. David and I rode our bikes about 15 mi. around part of this lovely bay, through a very beautiful valley, up and over the lush green hill, and down to the little town of Haamene, around the bay and back to Sidewinder. It took us about 2.5 hours and, by the end of it, we were wishing it had been just a tad bit shorter. It was great exercise and a wonderful way to witness the lush land and friendly locals nestled into their beautiful neatly manicured homes covered with flowers. Wow!  It is so calm today, we hope to explore the northwest coast a little and maybe do some snorkeling. There is a Tahitian party tonight at the yacht club so we will take pictures and send them to you.
