Kia Orana!!

Oh wow! ๐Ÿ˜ I had such an awesome holiday away. Nice weather, clear lagoon waters, yummy food and such warm and welcoming locals. If you haven't been, I definitely recommend my friends.

I loved our whanau getaway soo much, I want to tell you all about every little detail - and in time, I will ๐Ÿ˜ But for now here is a video I made of all the fun we had!! I wish I had taken more photos, more videos but this will definitely (hopefully) show you all just how much of an amazing experience it was.

And for anyone and everyone that has no clue where and what Rarotonga is, its a wee little tropical island in the southern hemisphere of the world. The mainland of the Cook Islands - quite close to New Zealand (which is why I think so many kiwis go there).

Heres abit of a visual for you my friends.


thanks @forykw for the reminder

Our Rarotonga trip was so incredible. I am so glad I was able to experience this!

Thanks, yeah I had soo much fun!! ๐Ÿ˜†

It was crazy too, apparently it was soo cold in the Bay that it had snowed right in the middle of Rotorua while we were away. I dont know about you but I have never heard of it snowing in Rotorua. Ever. ๐Ÿ˜‚ So it might have been the perfect time to leave aye haha

In saying that though, we are wusses up here in the North Is. when it comes to the cold haha You South Islanders man, I tell ya thanks @eccentrally

No, I've never heard of snow in Rotorua! You certainly picked the best time to go.

Eager to know what's fun out there. I have visited the place almost 2 years ago, but it was just, "buy a coffee" visit and that's it. Cheers.

Damm! I was not understanding when I saw your posts... like.... what??? RAROTONGA! COOK ISLANDS!!! LOL

Why in the hell I would just take coffee there and run!... dam no... so embarrassing...

I understood it wrong... or let me put it this way: I have looked at your post and then went to google to get the location... but I was probably thinking something else or "autocorrect" made a different choice... and ended up somewhere north of Auckland... to which I knew I had passed before to take a coffee!

Now makes sense! LOL

Oh well, I would wish visiting Rarotonga anyway. Looks amazing!
