La Orana



I guess if I am going to include all the pictures about the wedding I should throw up a few from the honeymoon as well. We went to Tahiti and spent a week on the island of Bora Bora. It was by far the most amazing trip I have ever been on. Not just because it was the honeymoon, although that helps. But the scenery was amazing! Our room actually sat on the water and was a beautiful suite. Its breathtaking how clean and fresh the air and water is in a place like that. The culture and food are all based on French Polynesian, and I can say it is truly magical. Kevin and I made the most of each day. Since our room opened up on the water with the sun rising we made sure to see it every morning. Sunrises were followed by a quick dip in the ocean right from our room, and then breakfast. Then it was off to the beach or an activity for the day! But there were also days when all we did was sunbathe and snorkel from our room. One day while walking on the beach Kevin picked a coconut from the tree, we made it our mission that afternoon to crack it open and eat it!!


We even took an afternoon to swim with black tip reef sharks and sting rays!! I can't believe I was that adventuresome to get in the water with them. Kevin said I was more like a a cat climbing a tree (him being the tree) that actually swimming in the water, but hey what else are you supposed to do when a freakin 6 foot shark comes by?

It was a trip that will never be topped, so if you ever have to chance to travel there I highly recommend it.
