When people ask where is the one place I want to return to- No contest--- it is Bora Bora. I felt like I had been born there, it really is magical. Great post, by the way.

Mt. Otemanu looks surprisingly like Torres Del Paine of Patagonia, in the Southern part of Chile. Quite the opposite sides of the earth but both stunning.

Perhaps it's not only because of the beauty of BOB, but also that you had such an amazing experience (and I haven't). When will I ever get to BOB?? When I do, I will most certainly cry, too...knowing the happy, sappy soul that I am. That photo of Mount Otemanu is so painfully and absolutely stunning, brilliant, awesome, gorgeous...I'm running out of superlatives! Oh, this is a photographer's paradise! Can you tell that I'm gushing right now? Thanks for sharing, Keith! Oh my god, I almost cried after reading this post.
