We flew out of Auckland, New Zealand last night at 7:30 p.m. on February 26. We landed here in Tahiti at 1:30 a.m. on February 26. We get a do over on the day. 🤣

By the time we reached our hotel and checked in it was about 3 a.m. so we agreed we would have a totally lazy day today. We got up 9-ish, unpacked and went to one of the restaurants for breakfast after which we walked around the grounds and explored the numerous restaurants and pools.

We’re staying at the Intercontinental Tahiti Resort and we made the extravagant decision to stay in an overwater bungalow. It is truly spectacular. The pictures just can’t capture how stunning our accommodation and the landscape here is. And the sunset❣️

We spent the day napping and reading and will likely explore outside the resort tomorrow.Read more
