| My first (and last?) tattoo – planned for some time to commemorate sailing to the Marquesas. |
I did it!
Artist: Piu of Menavanui Tattoo
Location Location
Baie Tahauku, Atuona, Hiva Oa, Marquesas, French Polynesia (S9.48.260 W139.01.924). When not doing boat maintenance and repair and provisioning, we are getting in some much needed R&R. We plan to explore more Marquesan Islands as we work our way through French Polynesia to Tahiti. We are allowed a maximum of 3 month’s stay in French Polynesia.
Beautiful tattoo! You two are awesome. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures. Take care of each other, Nancy & Phil
It took me several glances to realize that was not down the center of your back and that your right shoulder was not your right cheek. I had to let some fresh, cool air in – whew.
Ahem… just WHAT cheek did you mean, Dave? The posterior would still meet my "can't be seen in an interview" criteria;). Yes, though, 'tis my neck and shoulder and back where the tattoo resides.
Always great to hear from you, Phil & Nancy! We just arrived in Fatu Hiva on Saturday late afternoon. Wow!!! BTW brewing my 2nd batch of "ginger beer" – recipe from another cruiser. Hard to beat something that requires simply water, sugar yeast and ginger and is ready in 3 days. Definitely won't get drunk off it, but it's refreshing and far cheaper than $2 for a Hinano.
