All of the islands we'll visit are ringed by motu's, or islands. A motu can be large and inhabited, or as small as your garage. Motu Mahana belongs to the cruise line and looks like a movie set. Bars, food, chairs, trinket selling, snorkeling, diving, drinking, hot sun, and great fun. You just have to lose yourself in this stuff.
It's almost a truism that the passengers are a diverse lot. The biggest group is from the US followed by France. Then Asians and people from everywhere else. Remember, there are just 260 passengers total.the population is just large enough not to get thrown together with the same people, but small enough to make a fairly wide selection of new acquaintances.
We are in Bora Bora for the next two days. This is one of the more developed islands and has, according the somebody who knows these things, the largest number of high-end stores and resorts. Tomorrow we"re going to a Polynesian excursion ... Tour by out rigger canoe, snorkeling, visiting some tame stingrays, watching some non-tame sharks, and eating a typical Tahitian feast. Film at 11.
Overall, the trip has been beyond our expectations and has been a lovely way to celebrate a wonderful love and friendship.
The pool area. The pool is the size of our dining room, only wetter.
