Birdseye view from top of Sofitel Private Island.   Looked high and low for Tahitian Gnomes.  Perhaps they are on vacance. 

Taking in a view of the Large Peak on main island.

 

Bungalow over water...can't find snorkeling gear so must improvise.

Spending some good time in Huahine.  No Tahitian Gnomes yet...the Gnome diaspora spread relatives everywhere.

Relaxing on Huahine pillow.  Gnome sized.

 

Stopped by Vanilla Farm.  Smells like Gnome fart, sweet.

Relaxing by the beach.  Notice the mountain shaped like a breast.  In Huahine there is a native story about a Princess who got preggers by her lover, daddy no likey, she was turned into a mountain.  Or so it goes.

 

Henri has been getting around Moorea.  Lots to do.

 

Getting ready for travel from Tahiti to Moorea

Changed US dollars for Tahitian Francs...1 dollar equals 11 Francs

Hanging out with Tahitian God of Fertility.

Hanging out at the resort pool.

Can husking coconuts be that difficult?

Met another Tahitian God

It is time to discover a new place.  What is the likelihood of finding Gnomes in Tahiti?  Stay tuned for Henri's 2013 travel to French Polynesia.
