“The Forecast is for Rain”

It must be difficult to forecast the weather in the Cook Islands.  Yesterday, it was supposed to rain all day and we awoke to our best day since arriving here.  It was a very relaxing day for the end of our trip – sitting soaking up the sun, reading, swimming and snorkeling.

Our flight from Rarotonga to LA is at 11:15 PM so we have a late check out and leave here between 6 and 7 PM.

I’m finishing this entry in LA.  Yesterday did prove to be another glorious day in Aitutaki.  Putting on suitable travel clothes was hard but we did it and our flights were uneventful.

On the flight home some of the air crew told us of the terrible rain storms they had this past week in Fiji.  It was a good thing we did Fiji first and not last.

I will use this entry to sign off this Blog.  For those who read it, I hope you enjoyed it.  It was a great way to cause me to keep a bit of a diary of our very memorable trip to New Zealand.

AND WE'RE STILL SMILING!!
