After a day of repair and visiting with the local children we are preparing to leave for Nuku Hiva. Voyageur and A Lady have already left for other islands. Ocean Jasper and Crazy Horse are intent on refueling and re-provisioning in Nuku Hiva asap.
Some of the local fisherman visited us 2 nights ago asking us to borrow our snorkling mask. We lent them one hoping they would sell us some fish and veggies as promised. Well, we were loosing hope until last night as Bill and I were onboard A Lady they came asking for the Crazy Horse lady with the
snorkle mask. They "gave me" all kinds of fish, papaya, bananas, and grapefruit. When I asked them how much they said no money. They did want wine. We gave them wine and all were happy. Later that night they returned the mask. The people here are very genereous and very appreciative of
anything we bring to them.
Rosemary, Bill and Matt
