Visit the uninhabited island 探訪無人島－玲子的航海日記

I woke up in the early morning.The sun was just rising up.It was so peaceful here.I sat on the deck ,looked at the bluish-green sea and those uninhabited coconut islands.It was so quiet and relaxing.After many days seasick,those beautiful islands comforted me little by little. One time Yuuki and I chatted about uninhabited islands.We both agreed that it was not a romantic journey to get to those isolated islands like what we imagined before.Most of the isolated islands were far from civilization.You got to sail for many days to get there.Becouse of the far distance,the Nature resources and wild lives were preserved well. It's romantic for me to have encounter with the amazing nature and cruisers from all over the world in Chagos.
On Saturday morning,we explored the Takamaka island.Russel and karin told us there was a well on that island.Lon time ago,there were people living there.We got on that island by our dinghy.The sea was turquoise blue.It was so clear that you could see those colorful coral through the water.

We went into the coconut jungle.There were green coconut trees everywhere.We found the well.You could get fresh water to wash clothes there.

In the jungle,there were so many mosquitoes that almost drove me crazy.I couldn't stay there for even one minute.Captain suggested to take a picture there.Yuuki and I smiled bitterly.As soon as I heard the click sound from the camera ,I ran out of the jungle immediately ."Ahhhhh~so itchy in the jungle!"I cried out loudly.

Captain Hiro and Yuuki went snorkeling.I stayed on the island alone and took this video.It was a sunny day.The sky was clearly blue.

I walked along the beach ,picked many beautiful shells and listened to the sound of waves and wild birds singing from the jungle.

I wanted to see if those wild birds were not afraid of human beings just like what Russell told us,I approached them slowly and gently......then suddenly they flew away into the blue sky.

Captain and Yuuki went back to the beach.They told me what I missed under the sea.There were countless colorful tropical fishes and beautiful corals under the bluish-green water.Captain said "I got something for our lunch."Wow,Captain dived to the sea and got a giant clam (車渠貝).There were giant clams everywhere under the sea.Captain just picked the smallest."The smaller ,the softer."said Captain.
