Kauhale Kai: 7/22/07

Kauhale Kai has now spent over 4 years traveling the world . This year we passed 50,000 ocean miles, a distance of almost twice around the center of the earth! She has offered us a million small moments of adventure, laughter, excitement and satisfaction.

Each person who has spent time with us aboard has been a big part of that experience. I once said, "If I ever make it big I'm going to buy a big boat and invite all my friends to come and play with me." Well, play we have. Thank you....all of you who have been a part of this experience. The journey continues!!

Capri

(Team Kai)

(cliff jumping)

(the blue grotto)

I know why up to 10,000 people a day visit this island. It's absolutely stunning. We had an amazing time! We hiked up over 1000 ft. to the top of Mont Salerno, which was no easy feat in 95 degree heat, swam into a huge cave with only a tiny opening called the blue grotto, strolled their equivalent of rodeo drive, had an amazing dinner with the best wines we've ever had, danced until 3 am at a swanky club, and some of us jumped off a cliff that was at least 60 feet high. AWESOME...

Fantastic Fun with Fabulous Friends!

As usual playing with friends in French Polynesia is a blast. Well, playing with friends is almost always a blast but playing with them in a place with 81 degree water and a million shades of blue somehow always adds to the experience.

Toys on Board:
2 tenders, a wakeboard, 2 Kawasaki jetskis, Dive compressor and 10 tanks, 4 BC's,( + the crews), snorkeling gear for 10, 2 kayaks, 3 standup paddleboards, 5 kites and 2 kiteboards, 8 surfboards, 8 rods & reels and a ton of gear , 2 bikes . We left the scooters at home this trip. If after all that you can't figure out what to do, there's always a good book and a nap in the shade!
