Flowers from Bora Bora

My husband was going through my blog yesterday, and when he said it just stopped, I felt badly about it. For a variety of reasons, I went offline for a couple years. I am going to start again because I realize it is a contribution, and that’s something I want to make.

So we just returned from an incredible trip to Tahiti. In time I’ll cover the various aspects of our experiences on the two islands we visited.

Today I want to jump in with the flowers. We stayed at The Bora Bora Resort with a lot of honeymooners and people celebrating anniversaries (like us). It’s a very peaceful environment where we finally experienced the over-water bungalow. That in itself is very cool. The sea laps and splashes around the pillars providing constant watery surround sound and the waves are visible even at night in the giant coffee because they light them in soft glowing blue. It’s like being in a boat without the rocking.

The weather was mostly bad, but we did get out for some walks between storms. Possibly my favorite part of the resort was the gardens.

They have extensive lily ponds which are gorgeous. I’ve never seen a single lily pond before let alone ones that extend everywhere. Flowers are an integral part of the landscape design and indoor decor.
