Rarotonga, the Cook Islands





This place was beautiful. It was the hottest and muggiest place ever though! The air humidity can hover around 90%... isn't that like breathing in water?! It didn't cool down a jot in the night either. We also got bitten to pieces by mosquitoes. Which just shows that paradise really isn't as simple as washing up on a desert island!

Did some amazing snorkelling in the lagoons which circle the whole island. You can walk out to this small island in the pics from the beach - the water reaches about to your waist. The water is crystal clear and warm... properly warm, like bathwater!
