Kathy, we will be staying at the Beachcomber in Papeete that first night! Your offer to hold our bags is generous. I'll keep it in mind. I probably will not be able to decide what to leave and what to take to Bora Bora (one never knows what one might need :D ) so most likely we'll just take it all and pay whatever charges we might incur for extra weight. I'll let you know. Thanks again.

I broke it to Tom about no jeans or shorts in the dining room at dinner. He took it very well. He even said - "well, it looks like I better go shopping for some new clothes" Just when you think you have them pegged . . . . He does love flip flops, t-shirts and shorts, tho. He'd wear that every day of his life if he could. And Docker's, Tommy Bahama's and polo's sounded fine with him. Yeah!!!
