Sunrise & Breakfast By Canoe

The first morning in Moorea was a gorgeous scene. Since we went to bed at approximately 9 pm the night before, we were up bright and early for the 6 am sunrise. Things are so peaceful at daybreak. The water is calm, the sky is colorful, the birds are friendly...



Once the sun made its appearence, though, the day was upon us. It was bright, sunny and warm!

One of the super cool things that was part of our honeymoon package was our first breakfast delivered by outrigger canoe. Nothing like your breakfast being delivered to you via water on a beautiful Moorea morning.

When we checked in the previous day, they had given us a sheet of paper with breakfast foods listed and we put checkmarks next to each item that interested us for breakfast. Well, the poor man that had to lift our food up to our balcony got quite the workout. I think our eyes were much bigger than our stomachs.


One of the simpliest yet most tasty things we had during this breakfast and on the whole trip was fresh pineapple. You have no idea how good it was... My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I couldn't get enough of it while I was there - heck, give me that for dessert every night and I'll die a happy girl. So much different from the pineapples you can buy in the local grocery stores here in St. Louis!

It was a fabulous way to start the day...and as you can tell, we had plenty of leftovers for lunch! And look at me, not even an hour in the sun and I'm pink!!
