Poisson Cru (Raw Fish) is probably the national dish of Tahiti.  I finally ordered it on the last day and it was pretty yummy.  It\’s raw fish and cucumbers in a coconut milk sauce. 

And then we fed the koi fish some pringles.  What happened to us in Moorea?

After lunch we got showered in the hotel gym facilities and ready for a 3:30 pm pickup so we could catch the last ferry around 5 pm out of Moorea. What an amazing adventure this has been.  We are already looking at VRBO\’s to come back again!

Quinn liked to snorkel to and from the beach every day.  He thought it was easier than having to carry beach gear. 

Another day, another paddleboard and kayak. 

And our lunch view.

Quinn snorkeling back to our hut at the end of the day. 

I never get tired of this view. 

Or this view.   You can see the big cruise ship in the harbor on the left side. 

A look down the walkway towards the beach. 

The crepe restaurant has the large, coned shaped roof. 

Our home away from home. 

The cruise ship at night. 

The lounge chairs on our upper deck became our drying racks and bathing suit storage. 

A morning look towards the beach and hotel. 

We hung around the hotel again today.  But hanging around means hours of snorkeling, paddleboarding, and kayaking. 

These yellow fish always hung around our feet when we were hanging out in the water. 

Quinn thought the jet skis looked pretty cool but the cost was a little much for all of us to do go as you pay per jet ski.  So I suggested that Don surprise Quinn with a father-son jet ski ride.  A guide lead them out of the lagoon and around a couple of coves for an hour tour.  Quinn thought it was the coolest!

We had some Cornetfish that like to hang around our dock.  We called them BigBoi!  On the left side of the dock you can see an empty clam shell that Don found in the water.   One night he filled it with bacon to see what would happen.  We didn\’t see who ate the bacon but it was gone in the morning.

Tonight we had pizza delivered to the hotel.  You can see the options are different than what you mind find in the states. 

And another beautiful sunset. 

And a look down through our glass pane in the floor to see quite a few fish swimming around the coral head.
