Papeeti, Tahiti- The beginning of my trip in FP

I found a great spot at the Beachcomber Hotel in Papeeti.

Fish for sale!


On the road on Maupiti you can buy fresh fish and fruit!

The road around Maupiti....


The small island of Maupiti







Beautiful beach!



300 inhabitants on this island... 5 miles to bike around the island (thirty minutes). Right at sea level with hills but only one sandy beach on the island!

Coconut sprouts!

Yoga spoken here!



A place where I practiced some yoga!! Great view!

The Beach Comber on Raiatea..




I would come here and have a cafe' or fresh fruit juice while enjoying my coco pain... (like hawaiian sweet bread) and little mini bananas for breakfast.... I just LOVED the bungalows over the water!

Raiatea... An very lovely island!

Me and Maeva's aunt's kids!

I stayed with Maeva's aunt in a guest house outside the family house...my own little get away! It was SWEET!! I loved this island... It was HUGE so I couldn't really bike around the entire island... but I biked around quite a bit.

Snorkling....


Here is the beach were I went snokling....





It's raining RED!!

A tree losing it's flowers... a beautiful sight!

The Island Map!

Just starting out on the bike ride around the island!

Scenes around the Island



Nadia and I biked 38 miles around the island... YIKEESS!!! The bikes weren't in very good condition and my change rolled off a few times... It was quite a magnificant view once we reached the top of the mountain and looked down...

"The" Beach in town on Huahine...



They named the island Huahine... It has a reference to WOMAN... The small hills in the photo are said to be in the shape of a woman sunbathing in the nude... It looks like it really is that!
