    The Marquesas is our first South Pacific destination and our first chain of islands here in French Polynesia. And to be totally honest, we’re so humbled to be here…but not sure how to absorb it all.
    We’re sailing from the smallest inhabited island in the Marquesas, Tahuata, to the largest, Nuku Hiva. We’re also sailing the most remote island chain in the world.
    The Marquesas archipelago is wild, dramatic, chalk full of culture, history and natural beauty…especially in Taiohae, the capital of Nuku Hiva. But rather than trying to tell you about it, click the play button and join us for a few days.
    🌟 Found an internet cafe near our anchorage (in Moorea), so we were able to upload at full 1080p and at a higher bitrate! If you notice a bump in viewing quality let us know in the comments! It cost about $10 to upload and only took 80 minutes for the 1.5 GB file. If anyone can tell a difference we'll try to upload here again! Decently fast internet brings me 😂 (tears of joy).

    WOW..from the mix of tight and wide shots during the breakfast montage, to the very cool internal package on how intimidated you guys are there, to the awesome mix of music, to the great audio, and perfect audio levels, to the
    excellent use of drone shots, voice over, and natural sound narration..and no run on sentences! Simply fantastic as
    usual. To the trained eye you are two are the producers, editors, and story tellers in the youtube-asphere by far!
    I know how GOOD you are, I hope you do...too. All youtubers should be tested on what makes your stories so good.

Handled with grace and a bit of cheekiness, Nikki, you accomplished the important part...staying dry! I really can't imagine how much more beautiful scenery there is to see! Stay Safe & thanks for sharing your adventures!!!

    I enjoyed your viewpoint about how you're taking in the local culture and feeling a bit overwhelmed. It's interesting because most of the time we think of a tropical paradise as a place to kick back Mai Tais on the beach while you guys are showing a sensitivity to the new places you come across.

I like it that you’re respectful of the journey: the animal life (for the most part), the French Polynesian culture, and your sincerity in the travel. It really is enjoyable watching, and you’ve opened up a whole side of the planet I didn’t know much about. Be safe and fair winds.

I hope he get the wind, what a public figure and YT celebrity you both become. For example, this latest video posted today, and there are already more than 23 thousand viewers watched it by mid-afternoon EST. In other word, you are a serious asset for popularizing the place you visit. He better appreciate that.

    Im sure you guys know this but, Leave the dingy rope once around the cleat while you drop into the dingy. That way he can keep tension on the dock, then pull the rope from around or through the cleat or post once you're safely on board.

    That moon Is beauticul, I remember driving from Inuvik nwt and tuktoyaktuk nwt in the winter on an ice road in the eighties on a cold clear night and the full moon would come out and we could turn off the headlights and drive by moon light and it would be magical. Great times in my twenties working all over the Canadian arctic and Alaska.

    You know, as I watch these types of videos, I am awestruck and saddened. These places are so magnificent. Yet, I realize that in my lifetime many of these towns will disappear due to the oceans rising and the world changing. I must remind myself to appreciate what I have and live in the now knowing I will not have a chance to see them in person. It's one of the things I love about UA-cam. A record of our world and our lives for eternity. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all in UA-cam land. Oh, and Happy Halloween from Boston. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

As it happens the time always seems to fly by since every place you go is interesting, mysterious, colorful, uncluttered by mess, and fascinating. I started watching this one and before I knew it you were signing off. I look forward to each and every one. Please give Cleo and Singa an ear rub from me. Merci. Bon Soir!

    Sailing at night just offshore in unfamiliar water is very dangerous. You may get away with it 100x, and that 101st you'll wind up on a reef that the locals will tell you "everyone knows about" but isn't marked properly on any maps. I've seen it happen.

    Hey Nikki and Jason. When you visit Tahiti remember to be careful about letting your crew get too familiar
    with the locals. Don't forget what happened to captain Bligh.
    On the way home have you considered following The Bounty's course and visiting Pitcairn's Island?
    That is where Mr. Christian ended up settling with his mutinous crew. It did NOT end well for most of the men
    in the end.
    Nikki I am glad you made it into Minion OK. If you had fallen overboard with all that coinage in your pocket you
    would have sank to the bottom.
