arrived Kauehi

[s]anchored SE corner of Kauehi lagoon. Humpback whales greeted us at the pass. 2-3 knot flood sucked Pau Hana into the lagoon. Nice and deep, no worries. Forecast looks stable. We're anchored against the east side of the atoll, so no waves at all. We can paddle and swim in calm water even though the tradwinds are blowing overhead.
Actual distance sailed 231 nm. Kauehi is immediately north of Fakarava, so we'll stay in the vicinity for a while.
