Paw Paw - Log Day 87: Goodbyes and Hellos



After a rather rough night due to a really heavy swell running straight into our anchorage in Baie d' Hakahau, on the island of Ua Poo, coupled with gusty winds, and having said our goodbyes to Cattiva (Maria and Maurice) the previous night, we were up early and headed for Baie de Taioa on the island of Nuku Hiva.

We had a lovely beam reach sail over and arrived just after lunch time. After stopping by Wishanger II (Claudine, Brian, Ben and Sam) and Nina (Lynda, Steve and the friends, Karen and Peter) to say hello, since we hadn't seen them since leaving Hiva Oa, it was back to Paw Paw for an well deserved afternoon nap.

We also enjoyed a surprise "dinghy drive-by" visit from Do Over (Paula, Dan, Oriana and Ryan) after their hike to the waterfall, having previously said goodbye to them in Tahuata, thinking we wouldn't see them again until Tahiti.

Feeling more refreshed, we got to enjoy our impromptu sundowners and potluck dinner / barbecue on Paw Paw with Nina. It is fair to say, it was more of a feast than a dinner, and a good time was had by all.
