SO, we have absolutely loved the Polynesian
islands, but now it is time to move on. To the Cook Islands. We will
be out of communications for at least 4 days, so not to worry. Our
Satellite phone is out of commission, in other words it is bust!!
We have just spent the most fab week here in Bora
Bora. Climbing up the peak to the top of the mountain on Bora Bora (check
it out on line). It was a very strenuous walk with some rope work.
There were 17 of us, among us 7 kids ranging from 5 years to 14, and most of
them ran, but none on them were sore the next day, unlike us
grown-ups!
I managed to have a quick dive with the sharks, and
generally lots of parties. We now have to leave our friends on Telos, and
have to say we are all rather sad, but have had great fun with them, and hope to
see them again one day, and not too soon.
I shall write a more detailed blog with lots of
pics, while on passage, but for now, here are a couple for you.
Until the Cooks....
This is Bora bora mountain, that's a large
