Tahiti is our destination for today. It’s an island paradise surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and other islands that makeup French Polynesia. Tahiti is the most populous island within what is called the Society Islands first settled by the Polynesians in about 800 AD. It is made up of two islands: Tahiti Nui (Big Tahiti) and Tahiti Iti (Little Tahiti). Our port city today is Papeete which is a very large metropolitan city.
We decided to go to the local market this morning to do some shopping. Here are some photo we took while out and about in the market. The weather today started with rain and overcast skies. It has remained overcast for most of the day. Hopefully we won’t get any more rain for the rest of today and tomorrow.
