"It's just gone too quickly," I say to my husband. "Where has the time gone?" Already it's my eleventh day onboard the Aranui ship, and we're looping back towards home and the end of the journey. The Aranui, as more of a freighter than a cruise ship, picks up contents from the various islands, and delivers them to others. What we had done over the first 10 days was stop to pick up fruits and vegetables from Nuka Hiva, and deliver them to the arid Ua Huka, then loaded up wood carvings and Tapas from Ua Huka, and delivered them on our way back to Ua Pou. It's a transport system that's extremely integral to these far-flung islands, and it even takes the locals around.
Now very confident with my anti-nausea patch, I face the almost two-day journey over open seas back to Papeete, Tahiti.
After the jump, Adventure Girl
