Tahiti

Fri 9/2 - Arrived in Pappete Tahitti at 7am ish. After customs and baggage collecting, took station wagon cab to the hotel Tahiti Beryl - only english speaking person we encountered; some eating at restaurant, swimming, and viewing lagoon; no sand - hurricane took it and roof of office so lots of repairs going on.

Invited us to dinner at the Beachcomber with them. Took LeTruck - Don (and Lee) and all these females - he got teased on the LeTruck: "all of these yours?".
