Sounds like another great trip! We did that same drift snorkel at Les Tips every day, it was fun.

Joe, Great report!
That new AF class sounds interesting; we might try it soon!
Ahhh, Jeanine's poisson cru! There is nothing like it...
Your report has made me very homesick for my dear friends on Moorea. I'm sorry to have missed you and Bev and also Andy and Stacey this trip; we were originally scheduled to overlap a little bit with you but now we won't be going until March.
I LOVE that slow ferry! We have taken it many times (also with FIston's truck), and I really enjoy it more than the Aremiti 5.
Sorry to hear about Aito's. You're not the first person we've heard that from, and we actually avoided it last trip... Sad!
It sounds like you had a wonderful time! Has the Tahitian flu set in already?

You bet Barbi. One week is just not long enough. Your neighbor at Fare Miti is very nice, as is his family.

Funny that, about Aito's. We've never eaten there, but there was/is an article in the current Tahiti Beach Press on page 13 that touts it as "a funky beach-shack restaurant where you can eat deliciously prepared fish served by a cheerful Corsican host. Jean-Baptiste Cipriani and his Aito Retaurant play this role in Moorea." It's a good article that beckons visitors to eat there?

Good afternoon Joe
It was good to finally meet you and Bev. We had a great time on the cirlce island tour with Harold. He did a great job.
I agree Aito has lost his touch. Food was so so but really the distrubing thing is watching JB falling down all over the place. Not a good image for the tourists.
We had a great trip
InterConti is nice with the new bungalows and new pool. A few problems with the pool. It gets really hot on the ground. And we can not forget the new rules on the towels or as we called them the towel Nazi's. Really at over $400 per night you would think they could lighten up on the towels. And I found the staff to be a little less friendly than normal. Too many rules with the breakfasts and food service. Make it easy and fun and not a job to have a snack.

Andy, It was great meeting you and Stacey also. Had a great time with Harold and your bunch that day. Bev really enjoyed the girls.
Too bad about Aito's. Was really looking forward to that meal.
Next time try Les Tips.
