Arrived safely in the Marquessa's

Hi There, (Leah updating for me as no internet) we have arrived after 21 days at sea (the longest of my life I might add). These Islands are magnificent, a real garden of Eden. Very much like the Hawaiian islands to look at, mountainous and lush, everywhere you look are fruit trees, in fact you cannot buy fruit as the locals just give it to you. We are inundated with bananas! Yes there are sharks! Nigel got spooked by one this morning as he cleaned the hull. Unfortunately for us this morning we blew our mainsail and now somehow have got to get it fixed, if not a slow sail to Tahiti through some pretty dodgy reefs. When I get to an internet cafe I will update properly. Love to you all!
