Archimedes

The Marquesas,Nuki Hava Island

Nuki Hava

NukiHiva, Probably the most Amazing Island we have been to. 1st Day we did a tour in a pickup truck with Karl,Morgan.Arron,Freddy,and Johnny ,with me driving.The second truck had Chris,Victoria,MiTie,Emma and Len in it.We went all around the Island with fantastic views everywhere.Vertical mountains that looked like somewhere in Asia.After a couple of hours we stopped at a beach with fanominal views all around.The waves were perfect for body surfing.I managed to scrape my head on a rock at one point but loved the whole adventure.After acouple of hours we hoped back in the truck and cruised around the rest of the island.Alot of off road we went up to these plains that were on the mountain top and it was euphoric.Then we went further and the lanscape changed to pine tree,s and red earth.We then went through an area of horses and Steers that just went wild running down the road,it was sheer pandamonia for the animals and hilarious for us.An absolutely awesome day Day 2 We wwent horseback riding. Jayden,Barbara Dave,Stephenie,Olga and I.We took a 1.25 hour ride through a forest with pine trees and giant fern everywher,again absolutly amazing.When we came out of the woods Olga went into a Canter and I followed!Crazy good fun!Olga and I canter up and down the road and the rest of the gang started running the horse too.I was in a full galop when I felt my Saddle become loose I stopped KittyKoy(my horse) and sure enough me and the saddle went sliding off.Kitty Koy ran home ,we took the saddle and put it on a owneres horse and off I went.I went into a full galop the youg boy on the ather horse raced me but was no match.It was the fastest I have gone on a horse!After horseback rididing we went back to the same beach and went boogie boarding.I rode a wave through the barrel and out the other side.Some locals saw me and yelled and gave me a thumbs up.Faaantastic,Later Olga and I went for a short but betiful hike.After returning to the boat Capt.Chris Ordered Pizza, and we sat around on Archimedes and reminised our day
