Cathy and I (Ellis) were the last gang to be hosted by David on Ho'onanea before her return trip home. We had a great time checking out the French Polynesian islands for the first time. We arrived in Raiatea where we were greeted by David and Randy. After a quick tour of the island it was a short sail to Tahaa where we stayed for a couple nights. Upon leaving Tahaa we had a DDW sail to Bora Bora arriving in time for dinner. There was good food at all the usual places that you've been hearing about here on the blog. Weather was very nice although it was windy at times. Cathy was able to get over some hurdles like snorkeling for the first time in her life and also being in close proximity to "The Man in the Grey Suit", lucky for her she was in the water so we couldn't see her sweaty palms. As always the fun had to end sometime and I said my farewells to David, Cathy and Randy as they got ready to take Ho'onanea home. I will miss Cathy but not to worry the honey-do list is long and distinguished, I imagine Jeff will be missing his spot on G pier when she gets home. With a seasoned captain and a stout boat it will be a great adventure for her.
So here's to fair winds and following seas for Ho'o and her crew and I will be waiting at the dock on your arrival.

Looking good, guys!!!
