17:35.04S 149:37.18W anchored outside Taina Marina, Pape'ete, Tahiti, Sunday
We left downtown Pape'ete yesterday and sailed inside the reef to Taina Marina for fuel and provisions. We carelessly fell foul of the local Sunday trading hours and missed collecting some laundry and the morning food shopping window but we did get some diesel. Monday morning we will have another go and then we can leave for Moorea, Raitea etc. Until then we shall just have to bask on the deck or do a little snorkelling on the coral reef nearby.
I know it's tough but somebody has to do it.
