Here we are in Bora Bora, 'the most beautiful island in the world' according to their brochures. It is also said to be the honeymoon island. It is certainly a beautiful island and most of the world's top end international hotel chains are here with the classic thatch roofed stilted bungalows over the water of the aquamarine lagoons. There are plenty of white sand beaches at the south end of the island and lots of services for tourists such as dive shops, lagoon tours, pearl shopping and entertainment. An excellent place to hang out for a bit.
The last dive we did with Michelle was awesome. Starting with the scenic white sand bottom and coral head bommies to the school of eagle rays that came by a few times. There must have been at least 50 them, of all sizes. What a beautiful sight.
The time went by so fast that we had to say good bye to Michelle last night. I couldn't believe it was already time for her to leave paradise and head home. We saw her to the ferry which took her to the airport on the other side of the island. As they locals say, nana (bye bye) and safe journey.
