Yesterday afternoon we left behind the Marquesas and set off to retracing paths of the first Polynesian voyagers. However, we know where we are going and are certainly traveling in style. Today is day one of our voyage to Hawaii. I love days at sea like today. For me, sitting on the bow in the tropics is serene. Life is not abundant, but there is plenty to see. Seabirds passed by throughout the day, but my pet highlight today was the various flying fish. They are challenging to photograph and some are stunningly beautiful. Tomorrow I am looking forward to doing it again.
