Cook Island , The last destination in the Pasific ocean

After a week of relaxing in Fiji, we had 1 more week to relax before arriving to USA.
This last week was amazing.
The first night we stayed in the main land (Rartonga). On the next day we were on our way to a small island in the area. To get to this island we had to take a flight.
Check out the view from the airplane...













As we arrived to the island, we got a warm polenisian welcome, with coconut drink and flowers.





The place we stayed was amazing. It was a luxirios resort, isolated in his own samll island.













Very relaxing and quite.
The resort was in the middle of a lagoon, which mean that the color of the water was amazing.


Our Room





















We had alot of activities in the resort.

Wind surfing



















coconut weving, we made a bowl for the coconut we grined.





Island night





We also enjoyed the food in the place, quite amazing (and very very expensive).




Eventhought it seems that we relaxed most of the time, it´s not completely true. One day we rent bicycles and ride almost all around the island (about 4 hours). It was quite an exercise since it was very hot.
I know that people who knows me, are now scratching their heads, and asking themselfs how can it be that I was riding. Well, I have news to all of you, I learned how to ride back in New Zealand, and after doing this small trip in the island I can announce that I know how to ride.







From Atutaki (The resort island) we took a cruise to see some other small island in the lagoon. One of them was the island were Survivor (the american show) was filmed and the small exile island. It was quite interesting to see what kind of places they are taken and also to hear some behind the scene scoops....













































After being in this amazing place for 5 days, we returnd to Rartonga, the main island.
After being in Atutaki, this place was quite a disappointment. But, izick made the best of it.
He went diving and also did some short guided hiking (I had enought of them for the mean time).
