Celebraiting Regis (on the right) 35 birthday.



As everywhere in French Polynesie, good maintained streets.



Bora Bora

They say Bora Bora is the most beautiful island in the Pacific, I don't know because we saw only 8 islands in French polynesie, maybe it is so.


some little boats lifted out of the water.


There are plenty manta's in Bora, the watch the manta population very close, in the tourist office you can see the evolution of the manta population.


Photo of group manta's taken from the boat, when we were moving to another spot.



The Bora bora village, The whole island and surrounded islets, are is in the tourist business, The rich and famous come here to relax.



This is a part of the Hilton resort.


white beaches and blue turquois water, sun and sand.


Probably both very tired from working whole day.



Road around the island



The dinghy dock at restaurant "bloody Mary" here come the rich and famous to eat.


Beautiful flower.



The rich and famous who eat at bloody Mary get their name on a board, which is placed outside the restaurant.


Us at Bloody Mary, we had a hamburger lunch, we were the only famous people at that moment.
