Restaurant, Bora Bora Lagoon
"Today is the best day ever!" announced Kendra on Friday morning. "I
pooped AND got an email!"
Travel in general, and ocean sailing in particular, can mess with one's
regularity, and Kendra did not escape. Apparently her system returned to
normal and she was pleased to discover a message from her boy friend after
our daily sat phone email hookup. It's the little things that make life
special on the Mighty Moku pe'a.
The weather has been pretty dismal for most of Kendra's visit with lots of
rain. On Thursday morning it looked like it might be clear though so we
rode our clown bikes the twenty miles around Bora's coast road. Once we
got about five miles into it the heavens opened up and we completed the
ride in the rain, but at least it was warm.
I pulled off a critical victory in yesterday's cribbage game, and the
tally is now 4 - 2 in Kendra's favor. There is still a chance that I'll
get out of this with my dignity intact.
Last night we had an outstanding farewell dinner for Kendra at Bloody
Mary's, and made it back to the boat just before it started pouring. The
bucket that I use to weigh down the dam for my water catchment system has
about six inches more water in it this morning than it did yesterday.
That's lots of rain, and probably a full water tank.
