Our last day started with breakfast at our hotel, continental for Michael and American for me. We took a short walk but it was quite muggy and hot so that didn't last long. We reversed our trip back to the the ferry for Papeete where we were picked up and brought to our day room at the Tahiti Pearl Beach Resort. It's raining which is too bad because the pool looks quite nice. We ran into Pat and Nancy who were on the Aranui with us. They are from Iowa and know the town of Renwick, which I think is the hometown of our friend Phyllis. We'll see them again later at the airport for the Los Angeles flight.
I'm hoping once I get home with good WiFi that I can post a few pictures.
This has been a wonderful trip. We've met so many nice people from other parts of the world and I think it's so valuable to experience other cultures and see life from another perspective. You certainly realize how much you have to be grateful for, but also that there are other points of view. And even more importantly, you realize that we are really all alike in the most fundamental ways.
