After 5 hours 30 minutes flying from Sydney a wonderful sight appeared; out of the infinite blue pacific rose the beautiful atoll of Rarotonga (32km perimeter) with jagged green hills. Our 4 star resort was immaculate and we spent days just swimming, kayaking and snorkeling in the lagoon; a perfect environment for the young boys. Anne knew we would be restless in one place thus a 40 minute flight took us to the breath taking atoll of Aitutaki. We stayed in our 5 star beach villa and experienced total luxury in a picture perfect environment. We cycled and scootered around he island (16km perimeter); snorkelling was fabulous. We returned having had great fun with the boys and having had experienced a luxurious holiday whilst we could afford it.
