Day Twenty-One: My Dream Vacation
It has been a long lived dream of mine for Aaron and I to go to Bora Bora. I actually (desperately) wanted to get married there. But, as you can see, a flight for one person is around $3,000 and a day or two long. Not really the ideal price point when your family is requiring their own attendance. Sure, it was nice to have them all there, but gosh... Bora Bora would have been nice too! I'm totally just kidding... kinda.
Did you know that they spray the entire island so there are no bugs? That is incredible. I am not a fan of the actual nature that happens outdoors, especially tropical insects. It is actually disturbing me as I type about it.
So, yeah. I still really want to go to Bora Bora some day. And I would love it if "some day" was in the next couple of years. I remain optimistic. Though, I really do not expect it to happen (read: student loan debt). But, I am the type of person that makes things happen if I really want them to. The issue I usually have, is that the want for the thing usually fades pretty quickly. But, I mean, what are the chances of not wanting to go to Bora Bora? Pretty damn unlikely.

They spray the whole island so no bugs?! Um, so basically Bora Bora is...heaven?
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on this one--it's definitely in my top two (well, Bora Bora...Maldives...anything like this I would take), but it is SO insanely expensive and time consuming to get to. My husband told me that if we live overseas for work (which we are considering) that a trip to the Maldives would be a lot more possible....I'm considering it haha
ReplyDeleteBora Bora looks amazing! My aunt went there and loved it! Hope you get to go one day :)
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to go to Bora Bora! I think I actually have one of the exact same photos pinned on Pinterest! haha! The one with the little "homes" on the water. It looks so beautiful there. My hubby and I wanted to run away to a tropical island and get married too. lol There's a small part of me that still wishes we did hahaha!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike!! This is EXACTLY where I want to go!!!!
ReplyDeleteNot only does it look stunning, but the idea of no bugs makes it sound perfect!
ReplyDeleteI would love to honeymoon at this place, for real!
ReplyDeleteOMG. You totally just sparked the wanderlust in me yet again. Bora Bora is definitely a must-see!!!
ReplyDeleteMy dad has always wanted to go there too but like you said its expensive.
ReplyDeleteOh my...Bora Bora looks like a fantastic place not just for weddings, but to simply forget that the real world exists. I'd love to go one day as well. :)
