The weather continues to be unseasonably amazing. It is 78 degrees so Ida and Wess invite us on their boat along with Joe and Jess and John and Ellie, all of whom we know well. Back in July, they all rented a large van and came down to visit us in Charlottesville for a long weekend of fun at our house and breweries and wineries visits. The 10 of us (including Jack and Ellie) had an awesome time. The boating turns out to be spectacular with the lake lined by trees with autumn colored leaves against a cloudless deep blue sky and glass-like water. We thoroughly enjoy the supreme weather and serenity of the picturesque scene over a couple of beverages. Later that evening, we catch up with Zuzana and her family for dinner.

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.
Happy Aussie Father’s Day to @grantiangamble ♥️
