What an amazing day! The weather continues to be unseasonably awesome and we are joined by my sister, Zuzana, and her three kids, Sky, 15, Sydney, 12, and Tommy, 8, for a socially distanced food truck festival at the campground. Filled up on tasty BBQ, paninis and cupcakes, we join up with Ida and Wess for a beautiful afternoon walk at a nearby farm estate with their two dogs, Rocky and Nala. Later in the evening, we are joined by Ida, Wess, Jess and Joe, my mom Lida and stepdad, Dusan at the campground for a little tour of Thelma and an outdoor get together.
What an amazing day! The weather continues to be unseasonably awesome.

Sailing Tahiti to Australia | Leg 3: Bora Bora to Fiji Passage
After having waited in French Polynesia for two and a half months, we excitedly sailed out of Bora Bora around 7:30 am on Saturday, September 4th. Like the rest of French Polynesia, Bora Bora was in COVID lockdown, and we had spent the last week waiting for our departure paperwork to go through all the requisite bureaucratic channels. This required multiple trips to the local gendarmerie (police station), where Grant quickly befriended the two kind and helpful officers, Alex and Bruno.
Sailing Tahiti to Australia | Leg 2: Mo’orea to Bora Bora
It took us about 24 hours to get from Mo’orea to Bora Bora on August 28 2021. Like the rest of French Polynesia, Bora Bora was in COVID lockdown, and we spent a week there waiting for our departure paperwork to go through all the requisite bureaucratic channels. This required multiple trips to the local gendarmerie (police station), where Grant quickly befriended the two kind and helpful officers, Alex and Bruno.
We made trips to get water, fuel and provisions, but apart from that we had to stay on the boat. We passed the time snorkeling (saw a giant moray eel!) and inventing new water sports.
Once we received our exit paperwork, we were finally free to leave for Fiji.
