Bora Bora

Woke up @ 7am & we were already moored in the bay. Time for some breakfast & head ashore. When I tried to use my Seapass it wouldn't work, so had to run back to our cabin to get the spare one, raced back to where they were loading passengers onto the tender, only to find they had changed the deck level & had to go half back along the ship to be able to get onto the tender. Not my day so far!!!

 

Bora Bora was another beautiful tropical island. Post card perfect

Bob & Lin on local "Le Truck" taking us out to the glorious beach for a swim. $5 return each for a 15 minute ride to the beach. When we tried to get back on Le Truck after checking out Bloody Marys, they hit us again to get back to town.

As Bobby says "Your on holidays, you're gonna get ripped off, get over it"!!!!!

How's that for a beach, lovely & safe, surrounded by a reef, which made it like a lagoon

The Paul Gaugin 5 star cruise ship was also in port today, that probably put the prices of BLACK PEARLS UP!!!!

Sailing out through the reef & on our way to New Zealand, another 5 days @ sea. Love the sea days.
