Marquesas Island # 2

What is a rainbow caused by the moon called?  Well there was this fantastic white glowing ‘moonbow’ that appeared in the light drizzle around midnight last night as we were making our way to this anchorage.  It was a beautiful half circle with different shades of white and a magical glow throughout the interior of the arch.

This morning we awoke and found that there were these giant mantas swimming around the anchorage, gently flipping the tips of their wings into the air. Then just as casual as can be a pod of dolphins cruised by with their young. The water is quite clear and there are tropical fish and some coral.  We are anchored in about 14' of water, and the sandy bottom looks much closer.

Just another day in the South Pacific - - -
