Sweet Escape: Let’s Swim With The Turtles!!! May 1, 2008
What have we here? I think this would qualify as a sweet escape…
I like.
Oh, hi friends! You caught me dreaming again. I know it is a bit fanciful to imagine such a sweet escape, but once in awhile you just have to throw caution to the wind and imagine the possibilities! And come to think of it, why should I just imagine it? Why, I say?! I’ve worked hard. I can see no reason that I should not just charge a trip like this on my visa card right now sell my mini-van and head off on an adventure!
I really want to jump in that water. Except for there is a giant turtle swimming in it.
I can picture it now.
Buh, bye, kids! We’ll see you when we get back from BORA BORA!!!
Who’s with me here, people?!
Where else would they bring you breakfast in a canoe? Bora Bora!
Blissful sigh.

BAAAAA WAAAAA…..BOOOOO HOOOOO , I WANNA GO, TOO!!
It is as if you can read my mind. I have dreamt about going to Bora Bora since I was in high school. To me, it looks like the most beautiful place in the world. Your pictures are stunning. I just keep staring at them.
Did you say, “girl trip!?!?!” When are we leaving?????
Ooh. I want to come along. Can I wear a crown of flowers and eat pain au chocolat (that’s it, isn’t it?) in a canoe?
Just so there are no insects. Jungle bugs scare me.
What time is the flight?
Me me!! Hang on, I am coming with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoox
Aaahhh! Another blissful sigh.
Hi Melissa! Nice to “see” you again!
Just wanted to let you know that I gave you an award today. I’m sure you’ve got hundreds, but it’s my way of saying how much I love your kindness and your blog!
Oh man, whats this about turtles? Our turtle drowned itself yesterday ( poor thing - got stuck between 2 rocks) and Ive seen two turtle posts in 2 days and never one before!!
In memory of “Brown” - the turtle
THAT is absolutely beautiful Melissa - I caught myself listening for the waves!!
my goodness… I want to go too, reminds me of the four seasons in Langkawi and another resort in Sipadan here!!
happy weekend
Oh, this looks pretty perfect to me!

It’s comforting to see other people have cases of Spring Fever as well. That is one gorgeous place, but the turtle freaks me out a little bit.
What a beatiful place! I’m homesick for Hawaii after reading that post. We used to go to the beach on the North Shore and swim with the turtles. They are perfectly harmless! I promise!
Please add some Polynesian music to this post…..oh my, how amazingly beautiful!

I am so tired of this cold spring we’re having - but a warm breeze wafted from your photos and I know that summer will come! Or…I may have to go find it myself - in Bora Bora.

Now that looks like the perfect place to unwind in. *sigh* it’s just … paradise!! And I bet at night the sky is so clear and dark that the view of the stars is just gorgeous!
This must only be a “slice of heaven” here on earth. God is the
creator of this beautiful island.
Dear Melissa, Thank you for such a beautiful post. Makes me crave one of those fruity drinks with a mini pink umbrella, toes in the sand, and pair of flip flops.
By the way, to respond to the comment you left on my blog.. Sorry to hear the link wasn’t working for you. I just checked it myself, and seems to be working fine on my end. You can always get to my Cottage of the Month page by going through my website. Hope that helps!

Have a great week!
Four Seasons Bora Bora. Nightly rates from $86,500…..

we can dream, though, can’t we?
That looks beautiful, but all I can think about is how I wouldn’t want to be there during a tsunami!

Hey Melissa, I know HOW to get you that trip at a fraction of the cost AND you would be able to write it off on your taxes…I am TOTALLY serious…
As Shrek would say, “really really!”
