oh no, we've lost tuesday

Oh no, we've lost Tuesday! For the past two days we’ve had to change our clocks at night, making it an eight hour time difference from Michigan. Today however we have entered the eastern hemisphere and somehow we lost Tuesday the 13th. We’re now on Wednesday the 14th. For the life of me I can’t tell you what time it would be at...

Shipboard Life

We're now at 170 degrees longitude and headed toward the International Date Line, where we lose a day. At a question and answer session with the captain, one lady wanted to know if we would be moving from daylight to night. The shocked captain told her nicely that it would still be daylight and we only change the date. Onl...

Raiatea, French Polynesia

Once again I stayed on the ship for IPM, but today was rainy and humid. I planned to go to the pool, but the weather caused me to rethink that plan quickly.

I enjoyed working on some of my photos and creating more slideshows. You may wonder why I don't post more photos, why am I posting mostly just video slideshows?

As a photograp...

Bora Bora - Day 2

We over-nighted in Bora Bora, many crew members went ashore to enjoy a night on the beach or a stay in one of the grass hut hotel accommodations.

I went to bed and slept in until about 11:15AM. I needed the rest.

I had IPM again today and so after eating lunch I headed to the crew training room to take care of some lessons I neede...

Beautiful Bora Bora

Sandy beaches, grass huts on stilts overlooking green and blue tropical waters...what's not to love here in French Polynesia.

I have uploaded a video slide show of the sights of the day. To view the video in a larger size, click on the small video icon in the blog post until it opens up in a larger window.

I hope you enjoy it!

Das Flitterwochendomizil Bora Bora

Es ist soweit, *Trommelwirbel* wir fliegen nach Bora Bora, die weltbekannte Trauminsel und das wohl beliebteste Flitterwochenziel schlechthin. Die Preise sollen dementsprechend hier von einem anderen Stern sein, und so haben wir gleich von Anfang an nur 3 Tage hier eingeplant. Ausser den grossen, superteuren Resorts (700 Dollar und mehr pro Nach...

Maurooroo Paradise

La Orana from paradise!

That means 'sunny hello' in Tahitian.

Crazily though, having left Queenstown on 04 Jul to get to Auckland, spend the night there and then leave for Tahiti on 05 Jul, we actually arrived in the capital Pape'ete on 04 Jul - the International Date Line does very strange things to the head, two saturday nights i...

Bora Bora

The airport for Bora Bora is actually located on a small strip of sand off the main island and so we had a great (free) boat tour along the coast of the island to the ferry port. After checking in we bought some groceries at the nearby market to save money by making our own breakfasts and lunches. We were pleasantly surprised by how nice the roo...

A little piece of heaven

I remember a quote by the late Pavarotti (bless his soul) when he first visited Pangkor Laut, an upscale resort in Malaysia. He said that when he saw the island, he wept because it was so beautiful - obviously, the resort uses that quote profusely in their ads. Well, I can definitely relate to those emotions. When we arrived in Bora Bora, I gues...

Bora Bora Beautiful

And here we are!! Of course we stopped at some of the other islands on the way, Moorea, some 10 miles off the main island and actually we motored by, got a beaut of a pic, then on to Raiatea, the second largest after Tahiti which has a supermarket with a 10ft frontage then you go into Dr. Whos tardis, goes on forever and has every thing you can ...
