Officially checked out and unofficially staying

Hello All,
I have never been a pirate but after midnight tonight I am one.We are all checked out of the country but havent left yet lol.I plan on staying until Saturday so we can explore more of the island.
Yesterday after checking out with customs and getting my bond back we moved over to the Bora Bora Yacht Club.They have moorings for boats and a small bar for sun downers and meeting fellow cruisers.They are really friendly folks and have showers and a washing machine.After checking in we went across the lagoon to another motu and went snorkeling,it wasent all that great but got to see some cool fish and got to cool off from the sun.
This morning Jon and I went to the beach and went for a walk to a view point to get some some pics and look around.More than half way up the trail we found a really good spot to take pics and continued on.Not far after that the trail got super muddy from all the rain lately and was to hard to walk in our flip flops so we made it back to the road and hitched a ride to the south of the island.There were a few beach resorts down there and a few shops and beautiful beaches,it was awesome.On the return back we had a drink at a bar called Bloody Marys,it is a famous bar here and has a list of celebrities including Jimmy Buffet,Warren Buffet,Bill Gates and Kurt Russell just to name a few.Delphine stayed on the boat today to read and just relax.
Tomorrow we will take the boat around the inside of the lagoon to the western coast.I have been told it is very beautiful and has some good snorkeling anchorages.
I will let you know how that goes and will talk to everyone soon.





PEACE
