24 March -- At Sea

We've turned the corner and are heading northeast towards Tahuata, as we are near the end of our voyage, visiting the last 2 islamds on our itinerary during the days ahead! We had a sunrise that was hidden by clouds on the horizon, but what a fantastic sunset. As we had a sea day, we had a relaxing morning at the aft pool, followed by Robbi's standing Mahjongg game.  She really has had fun playing and even had some imprmptu games in the afternoon after tours while we were in port.  I've been reading and draining the library dry!😃😃 Last night we were treated to a Polynesian Feast complete with a fully stocked Fruit Market.  The staff has gone out of their way to decorate and make this a wonderful experience.  Today they had a French Restuarant menu complete with mussels, bouillabaise, baguettes, etc.  Where they get all these varietties of foods, we'll never know, and we probably won't experience them in our normal day-to-day life when we return to reality!!!
