We came into Comptroller bay in the morning. Danica had arrived ahead of us after our overnight sail from Tahuata. We spent the day in the lee of green cliffs covered with gamboling goats. Frigate birds swooped and fished between the boats, turtles popped their heads up as they swam past, and rays swam upside down in a feeding frenzy. In the afternoon we kayaked ashore, but there was nothing to be seen except pigs and coconut husks, so we went back to the big boat and had Glen and Mary over for supper and card games. After a rollicking night side-wise to the swell we took off for Taiohae bay, arrived in the morning and dropped the hooks.
