I have wanted to come to Bora Bora since I first heard about it in my 20's and when I swore it was calling my name in my 30's!! It did not disappoint, one of the most gorgeous lagoons I have seen to date.

Below is a 360 degree video a couple of our adventurous hikers filmed after they climbed atop the volcano. Kona Jim is a tad out of breath after that trek but the view in all directions is so stunning I had to share.

We explored the island and surrounding lagoon by land on a 4 x 4 quad in the morning and by afternoon over sea via a jet ski! Bosco drove both vehicles and had a blast and I hung on for dear life and tried to film it whiz by! Highlights below with last video showing locals who like to ride our tenders wake every time we head back to ship - cool past time!

BORNEO ISLAND is a fascinating place, that I had honestly only heard of from the reality tv show Survivor. I'm still learning so much, but I had no idea it is the largest island in Asia and 3rd largest island in the World! It is a mini continent, with 3 different Countries sharing the island's land mass ( Indonesia 73%, Malaysia 26% and Brunei 1% ). We are only going to 2 ports in Malaysia now, one in each of the states of Sarawak and Sabah . Below is a video that highlights and explains thing well.

The Port of Singapore is massive and thus deserving of it's own post!
