Woo Hoo!

I made a friend in Rarotonga named Emma from the island of Atiu, and she helped me find a hotspot that worked, albeit, it was quite a challenge.

Thank you Emma & Kia Orana!

Raro has amazing pristine beaches,

coral reefs,

and empty, jungle-covered volcanic mountains to explore.

Our son is exploring with us, and tomorrow we head to the more remote island of Aitutaki.

Cheers to you from the unspoiled & ethereal Cook Islands~

Oh my …. R&R of dreams meets reality! 😀
I hope you do visit here someday. It’s paradise without all the crowds.
Lovely blue skies and nearly every thing around has blue hue too!
It’s blue heaven here <3
Glad you’re enjoying the Cooks. Don and I spent a week there a few years ago and loved it.

Bonjour ou bonsoir mon amie CINDY
Je viens te faire le cadeau des plus précieux
Celui du temps
De rêver à de nouvelles idées
De réfléchir aux anciennes
Peu importe le temps que nous passons ensemble sur nos blogs
Tu découvriras toujours de nouvelles dimensions
Au travers du miroir et de ce lien celui de notre l’amitié
L’amitié c’est aimer pour ce qu’elle est moi je le pense
Non pour ce qu’elle fait
En se sentant aimé
On est capable de grandes choses, de s’accrocher , de réussir
Belle journée ou soirée et belle semaine
Bisous Bernard
Merci beaucoup mon ami Bernard!

Awwww, Kia Orana Amy!
What a gorgeous paradise, Cindy! It looks wonderful there. And it’s great that your son joined you too. It sounds like finding good wifi is a real challenge!
There is a funny sign here that says, “No wifi. Had to hang out with my family…..found out they are really nice people!”
Love it!!!
Funny!!
<3 <3
Incredible series of photos Cindy, and I hope your son gets you up kite-surfing soon ~ think of the photos you can get from such a perspective 🙂
Thanks Randall. Not me. But he is everyday!
Wow looks awesome!
Wonderful to hear from you & cheers to you from The Cooks!
Breathtaking! There’s almost too much to take in.💖
It is an amazing little island <3
It really is. One of the things I really like about blogging is I’m constantly learning. Your photos along with your colorful captions really bring them alive. And of course it gave me something to Google!
Wow stunning!
A beautiful speck in the middle of a very big sea!
Yes!!!

I Googled the Cook Islands. They look magnificent. There are 15 islands with Rarotonga being the largest. I wonder how long it would take by plane from New York. The site said 6 hours. It has to take much longer to reach the South Pacific. I need to do more research.
The only flights from the US are from LAX and it takes over ten hours. All other flights go through Auckland or Tahiti or Fiji. Some Europeans fly to LAX, and then to the Cooks. The Cooks are not easy to get too, unless you live in New Zealand, but this is why they are wonderful. From NY you would have to fly to LAX, take the overnight flight to The Cooks which I think only goes once a week, Here is a link for you that may help:

Awesome.
I can easily see you too here <3

A Place I Want To Visit
Hugs to you sweet friend and I hope you do visit and post about it. Kia Orana from The Cooks! <3
What a gorgeous place!!
Yes. The island that time forgot. Wonderful <3
Lovely! Another place I dream of visiting (along with the French Polynesian islands) when the ‘time’ is forgotten… 🙂
Islands of forgotten time are some of the best vacation spots in the world. I am glad you will visit and look forward to hearing your impressions~
What a heavenly paradise! The beaches are stunning. How I wish I could lay on the shoreline of one of those immaculate beaches. Thank you for sharing and taking me on yet another incredible journey with you, Cindy. 💙
You are most welcome and I sincerely wish I could beam you over there right now <3
