Greetings from our home at La Perle de Tahaa, (obviously on the island of Tahaa.) The Perle has seduced us with the gentle sounds of the ocean, beautiful sunsets, coral reef, schools of brightly colored fish and relaxing air. The nearby town of Tapuamu, with a small store, a dock, a pretty church, and a few homes is a pleasant walk from the Perle.  Relaxing is easy here, sitting on the end of the dock watching the amazing sunsets, swimming and snorkeling along the coral shelf just offshore, or just reading a book in the shade of the garden.  For adventure we took a 2 person  kayak trip across the bay to the colorful coral gardens.  They were a bit difficult to navigate with a strong current and shallow waters (it may have been better to go at high tide?) Anyway, lots of bright color corals as we were whooshed back toward our beached kayak. Fortunately we had the sense to hike up current and float back to our landing site.

All is well, we are soon off to the island of Huahine.
