First Walk About

Erik and I ate breakfast on Lido and then got off the ship. Papeete is very beautiful but it does have its pockets that are not as picturesque. We found an excursion vendor that offered $50 per person to tour the entire island for 4 hours, called the Circle Island Tour (the island is a circle). This excursion was about 3/4 cheaper than purchasing via Carnival. We walked around the market that is across the street as we have about 90 minutes until our tour starts. They have so many pearls and wooden carvings and sarongs. It is much more humid than my hair prefers. It is quite thick right now and unmanageable. We also found some cool and super cheap tours for Moorea, but we already have a tour booked. We called to cancel our booked tour because these tours are half the price but they don't accept cancellations that close to the date. Note for self to purchase off the ship next time.Read more
