Sweet Dream - Day 121 May 15, 2019



Today we bid farewell to Moorea and all her stunning beauty. We had a wild, wet rollicking sail very close hauled on a port tack to Papeete, Tahiti City Marina. On our way in, we passed Chao Lay sailing out to Moorea. Just as two nights before we had passed Endo 2 going to Huahine as we were leaving. Ah, ships passing, and all that....We arrived on the city dock in time for a nice rain storm and a crazy street musician serenading us from the promenade directly behind the boat. What fun! I love this vibrant city! After the street musician was done, the “ party boat” next to us cranked up some happy local tunes. I tidied up the inside of the boat, Lars checked us in, and dropped off both our cooking gas tanks to be topped off. Soooo...since it was raining, and we couldn’t cook on the outside bbq, we went to happy hour at Le retro, then ordered a pizza to bring back and enjoy on the boat, watching the harbour lights. After our simple supper, we played the ukulele and piano with old CSNY tunes. So much fun! I can see this music thing becoming a regular good time!
