New Video Post on my YT Channel | French Polynesia… Bora Bora, Moorea, Tahiti

Have you ever made “The Crossing”… Cruise ships will stop in French Polynesia going to and from the United States and the South Pacific primarily New Zealand and Australia. Do you want to revisit French Polynesia or are you thinking about your first vacation there…

This weeks video is on French Polynesia focusing on Bora Bora, Moorea and Tahiti. Although you can fly to French Polynesia most people arrive by cruise ship.

Typically they will spend three days at the islands before continuing their voyage. During the video you will hear my thoughts and see my photography giving you a good idea of what you can see when you arrive. If you are thinking of going to French Polynesia and had not made up your mind this might help you decide if you want to visit.

New Video Post on my YT Channel… Ha Long Bay, Vietnam – The Avatar of Southeast Asia…

One of my favorite cruise ship destinations Ha Long Bay is magical with 1,600 limestone islands or karsts throughout the bay. It’s beauty is matched by nowhere else.

You can explore the bay by kayak, sailboats or traditional Vietnamese boats and even do overnight voyages on a boat. There are also many hiking trails and caves to explore.

You can also reach Ha Long Bay by flying into Hanoi and taking a 2 hour bus ride.
