Bora Bora (Bali Hai)


Glimpses from the beautiful lands and waters of French Polynesia – after Alaska, maybe we should have family by family trips to Tahiti? We have found the perfect spot on Bora Bora. This is an amazing land with beautiful vistas, magnificent waters, abundant coral reefs and fish, unique mountains and very low and isolated atolls, spectacular sunsets and night skies and stars, and above all wonderful people. Although we have pictures, they don’t do it justice. The weather has been phenomenal, and the waters pristine and warm. We attended church today and met some wonderful, humble and kind saints. We are having a great time.

A Motu (island) near Raiatea and Tahaa
















The Rangiroa Atoll - 1 of 41 of the 78 inhabited atolls of TuAmotu's

The entrance to Rangiroa

We found something old - Sacred Stones at Huahine

From Tahaa to Raiatea

Fortunately, we had a great captain at the helm!

No need for us to travel...we can just blog along with our globe sailing friends. If they make Lauren captain that ship will never return to port :)
