Kia Orana from Rarotonga!

Its my last day in the Cook Islands and its been a very relaxing week. After arriving, we hopped on another plane to Aitutaki island where we hired a car and went whizzing around the island sights (well about 10k per hour!) and did the lagoon cruise which was well worth it to see the gorgeous lagoon and deserted islands.

In Rarotonga, we have to abide by 'Cook Island time' so everthing is done at a slow pace which suits us fine. We took a trip to Church on Sunday which is a must do in the guide book. Although we couldn't understand much, the gospel singing was amazing and we had a great buffet afterwards with the locals.

Yesterday we did a safari trip around the island and got some amazing views of the reef. Now onto L.A tonight to Hollywood!, my first time in the U.S - will see if I can squeeze anything else into my rucksack as I wanna go shopping!

Well I'd best go, but will try and send a final stage update in the next few days.

See ya soon y'all
