Raiatea
|
|
The next stop was Raiatea, which is about 30 miles
west of Huahine. Above is a picture of the full moon setting over Raiatea. By now, you must be wondering why is a bear awake before dawn most days? |
|
Well, since Polynesia is in the southern
hemisphere, where winter was approaching and I'm from the northern hemisphere, where summer was approaching, my biological clock was confused. So, because I had just come out of hibernation, it was not unusual for me to be up before dawn to see the moon set and the sun rise. |

This is the first sunlight on the clouds over Raiatea.

On the morning that I was arriving in Raiatea, there was also a
rainbow at the foot of the mountains. |
