I so love having Friends and Family visit! I truly love my life here on the Odyssey and really want to have everybody experience the magic. So please really consider coming - it's super affordable - your biggest expense will just be flying here and back.I have no visitors committed for 2026 onward - so have lots of my free stay perks available.

Having company gave me a reason to motivate and host an impulsive sail away part on my balcony as we left Port Denara, Fiji. Impressively I was able to fit 9 of us on my 80 sf, just couldn't get them all in one photo. From the bottom left corner clockwise is my hand on orange flask, Sheri, Bosco, Jimbo, Bob & Sarah, Joanne's leg and Scott and Cathy, who took the photo, are against the rail but not shown. I served 5 mystery jerky's I collected at various ports and had them all taste and guess which was elk, reindeer, salmon, fish or moose. Reindeer was the favorite - sorry Rudolf! Chips, crackers & cheese rounded off the mix.

I write this post with a heavy heart, tragedy has struck our happy Community. One of our much loved, founding residents had a heart attack and sadly didn't recover, as we sailed to Moorea.

I threw together an impromptu Bachelorette party for Angie tonight! Angie and Gian are getting married for a third time in Hawaii next week.They will be alone this time and it turns out she never had a Shower or Bachelorette to celebrate her first 2 marriages on the Ship, last May! Our girl deserved a fun night to celebrate her! So we took over a section the outdoor seating at Les 3 Brassuers, and their great band had us all up dancing! It's amazing what you can do with a bunch of WhatsApp messages to fellow ladies, some tulle, sparkles and always handy flower lei's ! One of the ladies even went and bought her some lingerie! I love our supportive community!

I got to go Sailing Again! We were supposed to head to the COOK ISLANDS after the lovely Rangiroa and the Tuamotu Archipelago, but due to stormy weather there, with all unprotected tender ports, they made the decision to head us southwest, back to the protected port in Papeeta (Tahiti). We got lucky and Holly ( pictured below) found us a sailboat available for charter.
