Dave is hilarious. He has struggled with the accent, finding coffee, and driving.
Tipping is killing him. It took a few times to realize when they look at him like he is nuts that tipping is not normal. We finally had to ask some Kiwi's. They let us know that it is only if service is exceptional but basically no. So Dave is feeling weird and is tipping 8% places bc he feels weird not tipping.Read more
This house is so pretty. It comes with kayaks, snorkel gear, etc. We pretty much play games around the table and run around that beach all day. We are on a section of beach that has 1 other house on it, so the beach is very empty and private. It's a two bedroom house but we all slept in the room pictured Bc it has a double ocean view and the other king bed faces the front yard.
Mosquitos areRead more
The kids hate it here. Ha! Just kidding. Evie made it 2 minutes out of the airport before she declared she is moving here and even picked out her own lot. She likes how lush it is and that people seemed to be eco friendly. The greenest foliage, beautiful mountains, and blue waters. I will say, there is no other comparison so far. This is the most beautiful place. It helps that the island itselfRead more
Evie has decided that this is where she will work when she lives here.
This center is a must when visiting. It has so much information that you could spend hours here. I know Evie could. This is her happy place. Thankfully, they give you a pass for a year with entry so Evie can come back often.
You get to touch whale fins, turtle, and shark parts. There is a touch tank. We looked at all kinds ofRead more
Today the kids finally got to do the water sports in the Harbor. The company is so nice and handle everything with your kids. We didn't have to get in at all.
You have to be 7 yrs and up, wear a life jacket, and water shoes are recommended.
So far, this structure was the highlight of their trip. They are super exhausted and happy. Good night to visit the Muri Night Market for dinner.
This was one of our favorite places to eat. We walked the beach and arrived at the market. There are tons of EZ ups with local food being offered. Major had kid nachos, Evie had butter chicken. Salt and pepper Calamari for an app, and two different currys. We loved them all and we will go back tomorrow.
We even came home to our new friends. We have three of them at least, that like to raid ourRead more
We have been fortunate enough to snorkel many places in many different ways. We have paid a local fisherman $20 to drop us off and come back in 2 hours, rented boats, and done tours. Never, ever, have we snorkeled by a speed boat. Now THAT is the best way to snorkel. You are more engaged bc you can't really fall asleep. You get everywhere quicker, so shorter tours, and you don't have to listen toRead more
Beautiful place to eat. Food is decent. But the best part would be jumping off the dock. Major once again exclaimed that he is coming back here for his birthday.
After we ate we headed back to the house to grab the 2 single person kayaks and head over to those little islands in the background of our photos.
The first one was easy and had great snorkeling. It also had something that is huge inRead more
We arrived and seated at a family style table. We met some new Kiwi friends. They were very nice and their 9yr old niece from New York was visiting. Evie made a new best friend. The hostess yelled out almost every country on the microphone, it was super amazing, the US was called and we were the lone people out of a hundred that made noise. She pointed to our kids and called us the lone wolf. WeRead more
Ok they can fry chicken like nobody's business. As a southern girl, I praise this place.
So good.
Evie has decided Moana was written about this island. The chicken is important so she sees why it was a character. You don't go past the reef and you can see it. She swears she has heard some of the music. She is digging it.
She loves the fruit being smaller and less engineered.
She is seriousRead more

I don't pay so I don't have these experiences but I am sure I would equally feel weird
