Paradise at last...

We recommend travelling with Lan Chile, the staff are fantastic, they give out pain killers and allow you lie out on three seats when you have a very bad head cold and are fit to jump plane. We arrived in Papeete at 11pm. It was hot hot hot. Papeete is very expensive and our plan, along with many others was to wait in the airport and get the first ferry out to Moorea and stay on a campsite. Sleeping in airports and camping on a beach was not going to help Liam. We had no other choice but to b...

FRENCH POLYNESIA

A short two hour flight, and we reach our final South Pacific destination, Tahiti, the main island of French Polynesia. Visiting Tahiti after being to Aitutaki is like driving a Lada, after test driving a Ferrari. Just like it's cousin, New Caledonia, it suffers from ridiculously high prices, caused by an almost total dependance on imports from it's mother country France. Not only that, arriving late on Saturday on a Bank Holiday weekend means that everything, and we mean absolutely everythin...

... through the generations of Tahitian people tell of how the falls were formed. The way they are told reminds me of the many Aboriginal stories. Walking the tracks to the falls certainly put the knees to work.

... and taking life easy....Tahitian drivers are mental and the worst we have come across in our travels to date. We hired a car and, to put it mildly, it would be safer to play "frogger" on the M6 blind-folded than drive in Tahiti at night time.<br><br><br><br>The island only has one road as the interior is fairly mountainous and still largely covered in forest. Everyone in Tahiti seems to work in Papeete and therefore drove past our small "idyllic ...

Exploring Papeete

... as he was wearing a "Rebel" hat complete with a confederate flag symbol on it! The man was a brown-hued Tahitian and most likely has no idea of the significance of what he was wearing but it tripped me out - how symbols have a way of surviving and losing meaning even....<br><br>By now it was raining pretty hard so we decided to go find an internet cafe - but our attempts to get online failed. A bit discouraged we decide it's food time again! The place: Master Sandwich ...

At Sea

... diary and also downloading and naming some of the photographs I had taken the previous day. The evenings entertainment was a Latin American comedian and singer, Patricio Rodrigues who entertained us for an hour before we headed off to join in a trivia quiz where groups of 6 people had to work together an identify well known Broadway songs and the shows in which they appeared - although our team did reasonably well we did not win the coveted prize of a Princess baseball cap!

Relaxing in Tahiti

... geysers, champagne pools, starred up in wonder at millions of brightly shining glowworms at Waitomo, seen Kiwi's at a bird park, sampled the "best fish &amp; chips in the World" at Mangonui, so good in fact we made a detour on the way back to sample them again. Michael has dived the "Rainbow Warrior" whilst I caught a very handsome, decent sized snapper in the pouring rain all by myself. And finally a big thank you to Tony &amp; Chez for their hospitality &amp; run of their home ...

... with the assistance of our steward, Justino, from Bombay, India, &amp; we're off &amp; running to the market. Cindy is looking to find Jordy's Tattoo parlor, to make an appointment for when we return from traveling. We find that has changed owners, &amp; artists are in Paris for a showing of their work. So onward we go, shopping all the way.

Nuku Hiva, French Polynesia

January 17, Thursday We have been sailing for 14 days and are in the sixth day of travel across the Pacific. In a lot of ways, the days have gone quickly. We spend a little time visiting with friends, a little time with Team Trivia and with games, some time reading and writing, and lots of time roaming the decks-and, of course, eating! The ship's Navigator stopped by our table last night and was very pleased to report that the good weather and calm ...

Day 56: TAHITI!!!

... I called home while Liz went to check out pearls nearby. Apparently Tahiti is famous for its black pearls; I don't know why I didn't know that. I sort of feel like I should have looked at them more seriously for myself - they're beautiful and look good in silver and actually might work on me - but I just never got into it. I guess it wasn't that important. Maybe someday. It was so great to call home but I only had 20 minutes on my $10 phone card. I'm glad we'll be in New ...
