Since I missed the Cooke Islands, I was determined to make it to the Marquesas. Yes, it poured, and then poured some more, but I didn't care. At this point all you can do is enjoy getting wet, then start scraping mud. :D Most of the LCT people made a short appearance, even if it was only to tender over and back. Now it's on to LA and we will literary only have seamail to send.
Watched Valerie practice yesterday. She is fantastic. I can't imagine anyone being any better. We will miss Tom, but we still have Valerie!
