Bora Bora

So last week I spent six nights in Bora Bora, the French Polynesian idyll that's as nice to say as it is to visit.

Of course it was for work. And I was on my own (not so much fun in honeymoon central). And it rained most days (but it was bath-water warm and didn't last very long). And, don't hate me, but I got to stay at four amazing resorts for a magazine story - Four Seasons Bora Bora, the St Regis Bora Bora, Intercontinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa and Conrad Bora Bora Nui.

I was sooo spoiled but, of course, loved every minute of it. Now I have to go back to cooking and cleaning for myself (and generally deal with the trauma of not having a butler or five star service).

But when I'm scrubbing the toilet, I can always look at these pictures and be transported back to paradise.

Now I just have to write the bleeding story....

          

What I did last week

So Macau. There was great food, amazing architecture, some giant pandas, casinos, 30+ degree heat and oh so many delicious pastel de nata (Portuguese egg tarts).

It was a fun media trip and now I just have to write the story - in between moving house (yup, we sold the Mt Vic place and have moved into our 16 acre lifestyle block in Otaki - sorry to spring that on you, but more about that later).

In the meantime, here's some visual evidence of last week.
