Laura Dawn - French Polynesia Log 10: Hussle and Bussle

Tahiti.....
Despite being beautiful, its very busy (and we've only explored the marina so far), which is a far cry from what we have been used to in the Marquesas and Tuamotos. We had a very bumpy journey down, reaching 33 knots of wind and over 13 knots of boat speed when we surfed down waves, and arrived shortly before 1600. Unfortunately it was another fishless journey, hooking one fish that quickly decided that it didnt want our rubber squid and let go. What are we doing wrong?! We now look forward to a full nights sleep (bliss) before we head out to see what Tahiti has to offer, but not before a few rums soaked up with some seriously overdue mac n' cheese.
