Hi Arlene. Fred and I leave Bermuda on Dec. 6th...16 more days....and fly through to LAX. We are supposed to meet friends there. On the 8th, we fly to Papeete, arriving at 7:30pm, and then over to Moorea right away that evening. We arrive back to Papeete on the 10th, about 5:30pm. We will be sipping some sort of tropical libation when you arive. I am so excited, that I am already just about packed. Its been a long time since we were last there. I have booked quite a lot of excursions already through the ship, more for the convenience of it. We are booked with Patrick on the 11th for a full day tour, but this is also the same day as drinks and dinner on the Mariner, so not sure. We are also trying to figure out which cruise to book onboard for next year! I know that I was born to travel, and I have the passport, and poor Fred has the receipts to prove it. He actually loves it as much as I do. Can't wait to meet everyone. Most of you know each other already it seems. What a fantastic way to bond with others. Any suggestions as a first timer on PG?
