View from Opunohu Bay
Taken from the aft deck
Afternoon photo of the peak
Private road to a home – extremely steep
Scenic
Island living
Quiet bay
Small boat landing
Sun was going down soon
Can see this boat
Boaters
Covered in sea haze
Partly cloudy
Inaccessible we think
Usually these peaks are in the clouds
Hidden homes on the shoreline
Sailboat heaven
Gone fishing………
Heard there was a vanilla plantation up here
A clearing for planting
Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort
Over-the-water huts
Some beachfront
Small boats in the reef
Wind Spirit did not stay
Expensive resort
Leaving the bay at Moorea
So steep
It may rain yet
Smaller rentals
Private
Locals
Unclimbable
Good place to stay
Getting hazy, despite the wind
This sail boat was in Papeete
Peaks in the shadows now
Leaving soon after 5pm
Civilized
Hilton Resort
Perfect size
Many huts
Water bird….all alone
More birds
A buoy
For the birds
In flight
Reef surrounds this island
Dangerous to ships
Finally leaving
Need rain here
Up close
Heading towards the Tuamotus now
Little church at Papetoai
Sister island to Tahiti
Green garden island
There goes the Wind Spirit
Bali Hai? Not exactly…..
Sails hoisted, heading into the sun
Island getting smaller
Sun going down
Island of many peaks
Heading west
Neat sunset
Going down by 6:07pm
Sinking fast
Bird in the sunset
Neat photo
Going behind the clouds again
Still a nice sunset
Getting dark
Bird heading back to shore
Higher clouds
Picking up some color
Locals see this every evening
A sunset to remember
About done
The color fading
And away we go………………..
