moorea to bora bora

disclaimer: this post is being typed on a french keyboard, so typos may abound.

our final day in moorea was awesome, just chilling mostly. we breakfasted as usual with a massive buffet, then headed out to snorkel. it was glorious, ive never seen so many different kinds of fish and coral. the water is incredibly clear, no sea weed or crap littering it up, and it was the perfect temperature. the only problem occurred as we were exiting for lunch, i stupidly took off my mask and therefore did not see the giant piece of coral to avoid it, ending up with a decent sized wound on my shin. jeff was a great nurse though, especially considering that the 5 star resort we were staying at has NO BANDAIDS. none.
after lunch jeff went back out, and i continued reading, which i have been doing a lot of, probably too much, but this stupid hunger games series is addictive.
we had dinner at the resorts fancy restaurant, which was great. jeff got me to try raw fish, which im still not a fan of, but hey, i tried it. overall a fantastic final day in moorea.
the next morning we got up, packed, ate our last breakfast, and got on the shuttle to the airport. it was kinda sad, we loved our resort and really didnt know if bora bora could beat it. how wrong we were.
after a somewhat shaky flight, we landed in bora bora, and were greeted by rain. serious rain. but even through the rain you could see the beauty of the area, along with the HUGE boat from our hotel that had come to pick us up from the airport. this thing could carry probably our whole plane full of people, but it was just the two of us that it carried back to the hilton. which is unbelievable. even in pouring rain its the most beautiful resort ive ever seen, in real life or on tv, totally out of control. our overwater bungalow is OFF THE CHARTS, its absolutely beautiful, huge, and includes an upper deck to sit on, a lower deck to dive off of, a giant bathtub, a giant shower, a bidet (which neither of us has gotten the nerve to try yet), two tvs and FOUR little windows to the water below, including one next to the bathtub in case you want to pretend you are bathing with the fish. unbelievable.
we werent up for swimming while it was still raining, so we watched a movie, and then relaxed until dinner time.
in moorea, we got breakfasts included in our package, but here we get both breakfasts and dinners, since the resort is on a motu, a small island off the main island of bora bora. when we got to dinner they informed us that we get an appetizer, entree and a dessert, each. so needless to say, we were stuffed by the end of it. really good food, beautiful sand-bottomed restaurant, wonderful company. it was a great start to bora bora, and we cant wait to see whats next.
