Traditional Wedding Ceremonies @ Tiki Village in Moorea
2008-02-13 02:49:00 The drama and pageantry of a Tahitian wedding celebration is a highlight for honeymoon couples or those celebrating an anniversary or renewing vows. Traditional Wedding Ceremonies will give couples a unique feeling and experience of a wedding ceremony at the Tiki Village, the small Polynesian Village that over looks a lagoon of magical colors. Upon arrival, couples are greeted by a festive band of local musician and Polynisian dancers. Then, the bride is escorted to the ceremonial hut where she is prepared for the wedding. Inside the hut, the bride is massaged with Monoi and dressed like a Tahitian Princess. Meanwhile the groom is taken by canoe to a small beach where he is prepared for the ceremony. While on the beach the groom is tattooed (with a pen) and dressed like a Tahitian Chief. Afterwards, the groom is returned to the village to meet his lovely Tahitian Princess who awaits him with the Priest and Polynesian Villagers. Then, the ceremony starts … Three types of...

STILL IN MOOREA!
2007-03-20 23:25:00 LAST DAY CRUISING - SEPTEMBER 2004After the stop at the Sofitel Ia Ora Hotel, we continued our tour of the Island passing through Teavaro, next to Vaiare and by Afareaitu. Then we got near to the Hotel Linareva, and Le Bateau restaurant, where we had a fabulous lunch during our first time in Tahiti in 1992. One day I'll complete the post on the Blogtrotter 90s with some videos, since there are almost no photos at all!"HOTEL LINAREVA""LE BATEAU (the Floating Boat) ? Located in front of the Linareva Hotel in Haapiti, it was owned by a Swiss, and had a very nice ambiance and very good food!"INTERCONTINENTAL BEACHCOMBER HOTEL - Almost at the end of our tour we stopped at the Intercontinental to take another swim and grab some food.

MOOREA - THE YELLOW LIZARD
2007-03-17 20:51:00 LAST STOP - SEPTEMBER 2004"MOOREA MAP, borrowed from The Tahiti Traveller website.I love Moorea, one of the Society Islands, a bit more than 130 square kilometres and 17 km far from Tahiti, to the north-west! After Bora Bora and its lagoon, it's my favourite Tahiti island; and in some aspects (less touristy, calmer and quiter) is even better than Bora. Seen from the sky, its shape looks like a fork or a trident, with its two almost symmetrical bays on the north side: Opunohu Bay and Cook's (or Paopao) Bay. The island is of volcanic origin, and it is said that both bays were formerly river basins that filled during the searise. Some, however, would claim that the bays are the result of the work of the tail of a giant yellow lizard, the meaning of moorea in Tahitian language...""SUNRISE""GETTING CLOSER - Early morning, after capturing the rising sun, we were sailing towards Moorea""ENTERING Opunohu Bay""EAST""WEST""ANCHORED - The Tahitian Princess dropped anchor at Opunohu Bay - the...
