Our first day weather was cloudy and windy. This is a view from our accomodation in the Sanctuary at the Rarotongan.
On the second day the weather improved.

These are some of the fish I saw while snorkelling.The yellowish one at the bottom of the picture is a Moorish Idol fish.
In the afternoon we went kayaking. Colleen and I took a double seated one. Chris was the only one with a camera so this is a photo of him heading to the beach.
Here is Chris preparing to go snorkelling.
We saw some big fish. This is a Bluefin Trevally. They grown to about 80cm long.
After a morning snorkelling it's time for luncheon.
This photo is of a cornetfish.
Here is a Scissor-Tail Sergeant fish.

Today Chris and I went paddleboarding. Chris did very well but I had a few ballance issues. I had to drop down onto the board to stop myself falling into the sea.

When I had finished paddleboarding Colleen and I went for a walk along the road towards Muri Beach. This is not Muri Beach it is part of the coast where the road runs alongside the beach.
In the morning Chris and I went paddleboarding again.

Dinner on the last day. Chris and I had Lamb Korma and Colleen had Seafood Chowder.
I took this photo in the evening looking along the coast with the full moon.
We have had dinner and finished watching 'Tolkien'. There are a couple of hours before we land so I am trying out the WIFI by posting this photo to my web site from the aircraft.
