Good to see that you are OK, P. Maybe the ever changing government there can now focus on their country, rather than themselves. Are you OK after the cyclone?

Yes, tx G&C although we had extreme winds (185 km/hr) where we are and in fact had to deal with a depression coming down from the Tuamotu and Oli coming in from the West at the same time... what a ball! Took a whole day to plaster tape all over the windows and we finaly decided to stay in the bathroom to be sure But we're fine which is the main thing! So very happy my man was not on Tetiaroa...
Manihi lost about 22 pearl farms and so did Ahe, no damage in Tikehau

I've heard on another board that the Paul Gauguin motu, Motu Mahana, off Taha'a was heavily damaged. Does anyone have details about this?
