All is well. We have more pictures to share. This time from Manihi<\/a>, the first atoll we visited. As you can see is quite different from the Marquesas.<\/p>\n

The view from our window. A little slice of paradise. This stretch of land is called Tatate.<\/p>\n

Here is a picture of the main town, Paeua, and of a building on coral near the town.<\/p>\n

This is the low land between Paeua and Tatate.<\/p>\n

Richard departs with the divers that freed the sailboats. They are the same divers we went diving with later in the week.<\/p>\n

The fancy hotel on the island with bungalows in the shallow water. This is where Richard stayed. Oh la la.<\/p>\n

Entrance to the hotel. This is what the white road looks like.<\/p>\n

Orange Coconuts!<\/p>\n

The whole area is a sinkhole. You sink slower in the lighter colored sand. The lower, pinker sand is wet and you sink very fast.<\/p>\n

The huge expanse of angle deep water just south of the hotel. You can just make out a couple people out there walking along.<\/p>\n
