Well, somehow we pulled it off. We managed to actually leave our kids for over 10 days and enjoyed some R&R...I mean work...in Tahiti. It was an incredible trip and we really enjoyed ourselves.
Here we are on our way to the island of Moorea on the Ferry.
This is Cook's Bay, one of the two main bays on Moorea
Here we are at Opanohu bay, the other main bay on Moorea.
This is point Belvedere, the two main bays are on each side of the mountain in the back
Here is Katie in front of a noni tree...
We rode these little buggies around Moorea...it was awesome..check the videos for more.
It was a little painful...but we managed to climb the coconut tree for this picture...
Here is Katie at the docks of our hotel as we headed out to the "motu" a small uninhabited island for lunch.
A Tahitian sunset...beautiful.
Here we are at an orphanage that our company helps sponsor...check out their backyard.
One of many waterfalls on the island of Tahiti.
This is a Tiki burger..imagine a Big Mac on freaking steroids. Two 1/3 patties, two mostly raw eggs, four strips of fairly raw bacon, two pieces of cheese, tomatoes...basically 700,000 calories in one bite....I had to try it...no, I didn't finish it.
Here we are at the temple in Tahiti...it was beautiful.The videos...
Here we are on the ferry on our way to Moorea
Here is our hotel "room" on Moorea...nice!
Cruzing on the road in our buggie...
Off roading in the buggie...it was a little bumpy...
Hanging with the rays on the motu in Moorea
Tahitian sunset...
These are called "Jack" fish. A local restaurant on Tahiti keeps a bunch of them in a pen outside their restaurant and uses them as...well, a garbage disposal. They are super agressive carniverous fish....imagine a freaking HUGE parana. They feed them all of their organic scraps.
Cool Tahitian fire dance...
Here is Katie on our cruise with the dolphins...it was really cool.
