Why I want to go to this place
I always talk about it and dream of going there after seeing nothing but amazing photos of in ‘The Great Outdoors’. I booked a trip for the whole family in 2000 and we went to Fiji instead and it was a fantastic and unforgetable country too and I said we will return to Fiji. 2 years later the next family trip was in Japan – FIFA World Cup and China! Well next year, my dream will be fulfilled, we are going to Cook Islands!!! Yaaay!

With some luck and planning, I will be there!

Why I want to go to this place
Um, who wouldn’t want to go to this place. From photos I’ve seen the water is amazingly clear azure blue, the sky goes on for freaking ever. It is, in my opinion, paradise on earth. So there.

Introduction to the Cook Islands
November 20, 2006
Perhaps it's their beauty, rivaling that of the more famous Tahiti and Bora Bora. Maybe it's the old South Seas charm of a small island nation whose little capital is like Papeete was a very long time ago. Whatever the reason, there are few old South Pacific hands who aren't absolutely enraptured with Rarotonga and Aitutaki in the Cook Islands. Rarotonga is in many ways a miniature Tahiti: It has jagged peaks and steep valleys surrounded by a flat coastal plain, white sandy beaches, an azure lagoon, and a reef extending about .5km (1/4 mile) offshore.
