I planned for this to publish while we were most likely out of all contact. Why? Because we are off exploring the Tuamotu Archipelago. This is the largest chain of atolls in the world and one of the most extreme places we’ve gone to with the boat. Plus it’s the sort of place that you would have had to be a mixture of crazy and a fantastically skilled sailor to visit before the huge improvements in the accuracy of GPS that have been seen in recent years.

 

It’s 550 miles from the Marquesas to get there and we plan to visit the atolls of Fakarava and Toau before heading down to the society islands where Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine and Bora Bora are.

 

So no we won’t be struggling to get online in such a remote place. Rather we’re just going to enjoy the time that we have there and promise to post a whole host of lovely pictures when we next can.

 

No news really is good news, just picture us being here.
