2007 Part 3: Pacific Paradise
In and around Oceania
The next part of our 2007 trip around the world will find us travelling to several islands in the South Pacific, including the following:
-- Tahiti (French Polynesia)
-- Moorea (French Polynesia)
-- Bora Bora (French Polynesia)
-- Rarotonga (Cook Islands)
-- Aitutaki (Cook Islands)
-- Naviti (Fiji)
-- Nanuya Lai Lai (Fiji)
We are really looking forward to chilling out on beautiful beaches, enjoying lots of great Polynesian food, snorkelling with manta rays, reading lots of books and watching some DVD movies. Be sure to read our journal entries in the future, as we complete our visits to each of the islands above. You won't be disappointed (we hope)!
