Moorea - Day 3 & 4

Adventures in Paradise continues.  Extraordinary breakfasts, then just beauty everywhere.  My view of fish has been through the glass coffee table - and one episode sitting on the dock throwing them bread.  We did venture out yesterday through one of the beaches, picking our way through the coral...trying to snap some underwater shots.  Difficult not killing a living being, or being stung by someone's tentacles or spines.  Up to my waist is enough for me, after all, I could drown.  We did walk over to where our bungalow was and at that point realized there was no way I could get to the ladder to climb up as suddenly the bottom dropped down much lower and the water became deeper.

Well, Jim isn't crazy about it either.  Today we stayed on dry land on the deck.  The regular beach is nice...but today was a bit breezier and I had no desire to get wet.

Last night we went to the Tahiti Village Theatre for an explanation of how things were done in the past, a buffet dinner and a show.  The folks who did the tour and served our food were the performers!   They all were so nice and the show was fantastic.  Native food was on the menu and it was great.   There were many different dishes including pork and chicken ones beside fish; and an array of fruits and salads and desserts.

Tonight  we are "staying home" here at the Pearl Resort and going to dinner in a few minutes -- and they are having a Polynesian Show as well.  They have not lit the torches around the pool since the first night we arrived, so looking forward to a nice spectacular event!   It is a buffet and I have been wondering all day what will be served.  The food here is just wonderful, fresh and flavorful.  And tonight, we have only a short walk.   Last night we had a 20 minute ride to the other side of the island.

Tomorrow we will go to breakfast and then be picked up at 9 AM for our transfer to Moorea Airport for our flight to Bora Bora.  It will be a 50 minute flight on some sort of big mosquito .  Actually, the travel agent said it could be 6 or 60 seater - so we will find out when it is time to board!

I have no idea about cost or connectivity to wi-fi in Bora Bora...so I will be back when I am able to connect!!

Meanwhile, Bora Bora is supposed to be more beautiful and spectacular than here, if one can imagine that!!
