We have designed and created a beautiful 36-page coloring book, inspired by our travels here in French Polynesia and all the images are in the style of traditional polynesian tattoos. We wanted to share our journey with you in a whole new way and we can't wait to see this book go out into the world. We hope you love it as much as we have loved making it!

After diving the famous wall of sharks it is time to set sail for new horizons so we wave goodbye to Fakarava and sail downwind to a place no one has ever heard of. We thought we had timed our arrival just right to match slack tide but the plan quickly unravelled and we found ourselves in the middle of a pretty dicey situation as the standing waves crash over our boat as we motor through the narrow pass into the lagoon.

We also faced some strong winds from the north which caused havoc in the anchorage and we had to take on a rescue mission when a boat nearby was forced to abandon their anchor and chain once the swell started damaging their boat.

It is sweet relief to arrive into an atoll that not even the nearest sailors have heard of and we have the whole lagoon to ourselves. Absolute bliss!
