We kicked off our first day in French Polynesia with a wonderful morning snorkeling excursion, but less than ideal weather kept us onboard National Geographic Orion in the afternoon. Thanks to our robust Starlink connection, we joined 100,000,000 Americans in tuning in to watch the Philadelphia Eagles crush the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59. What an unexpected yet fantastic start to our adventure!
