Sunday #stunday in Bora Bora as the clouds dance around the top of Mt Otemanu. Even on a cloudy day, the water is a brilliant turquoise blue, and the tranquil overwater bungalows beckon us to slow our pace and our breath.

I’d just like to add that the girls from around the #SouthPacific singing was also poignant. Their forebears were the great polynesian navigators who explored the vastness of the Pacific Ocean using the stars. I’ve always loved that connection - the stars as guiding lights here on #Earth

A deep blue sky with streaky white clouds. A pale sand beach on an aqua and blue ocean. A cluster of tall palm trees lean out over the beach from a little knoll covered with leafy shrubs. The beach winds around a bay to a small peninsula with another cluster of shrubs and palm trees. A small, very low wooded islet not far offshore lies beyond.
Secluded white sand tropical beach, Aitutaki, Cook Islands, South Pacific. May 1990.

I know more about the President and Secretary and less about Mr. Peters or his abilities.
My question, though, is, does the Pacific need a whisperer...
Or a louder voice in DC? 🌏
