We move to Bora Bora where our marriage ceremony is held. There were few people to move to Bora Bora, Japanese couple of the next room and two foreign couples.
By flight of 9:00, it takes about 40 minutes  to Bora Bora.
The jet aircraft to Bora Bora is lager unlike Air Moorea. (^.^;)
When a beautiful coral reef was visible from the inside of a plane, the stewardess spoke to us kindly. And from the seat which places the load of their part they said "Come here ! This is the good place to see Bora Bora."
Since the airport of Bora Bora is situated in the coral reef outside an island, we must move by the boat large-sized from there to the island.
We reached the Vaitape village on the opposite shore immediately.

Club Med Bora Bora is the very nice village in a gentle atmosphere carried out in a small way, and for our room the nearest cottage from the main moreover the location is sea front. It's very very wonderful !!

When I  asked  the nuptial talk to Michiyo of P.R. while having a room shown. It will be carried out not on prospective Saturday but on Wednesday. I was surprised  it because the Japanese marriage registration was united with the marriage ceremony here, and I asked my acquaintance to submit it. I telephoned  to Japan confusedly. The telephone was in the room here and there was also a refrigerator and electricity pot.

Lunchtime coming soon. Although the restaurant was not so large, since it had Japanese curry, we ate  curry with rice or curry with Japanese noodles every day. (^.^;)
We rode on the glass bottom boat in the afternoon, and went to see the archery place. Since it was seldom fine, we became anxious about a marriage ceremony just for a moment.

Before the nuptial talk, I will carry out the talk of the word about the snorkering in Bora Bora. It is because that at this snorkering trip we saw most fish and moreover it was most beautiful in the Tahiti travel of our this time.
The snorkering trip is an afternoon behind lunch. The boat leaves at 2:00. Even though Moorea, in Bora Bora, we can see many yellow and blue fish in the sea from the pier. I carried out bread at every meal too many fairly, and was raising to the fish. Although it had bread of course also at the time of this snorkering and I performed it, but I was distributed bread on board. . . (^.^;)
The butterfly-fishes here are familiar with the person very well, and they take bread from a hand direct. If I enter into water, they approch me immediately and they poke avariciously. In the end, I poked even the body and went up to the ship. (^.^;)

The next day was a marriage ceremony at last.
Mr.Carlos, the village manager, also introduced the thing of our marriage ceremony as a talk of next day schedule at the time of the show of this day. And just before the boat we rode returned to a pier, it is coming for photography of the Claudia Schiffer of a supermodel, and it was explained that it arrived at a pier. Oh my God !! I also want to see her !! And I wonder if such an important person would carry on here, everyone look her and  nobody come to see our marriage ceremony. But that figures, here is Club Med and it was a Joke. But it's  not only joke, it's the attraction of  the various heroes such as Superman, 007, will go to the pier and  into the sea to help Ms Lisa of the animation team is drowned with Claudia's role (finally super GM helps her after all).Unfortunately  we could not see this, and Michiyo teach us.

The day of our marriage ceremony. It is fine weather splendidly !
We changed into the tuxedo and the wedding dress (one suitcase comes out so much and was full) which were brought from Japan, and I adjusted my  hair and makeup by myself. When I met Kaori of the excursion G.O. at the entrance, she told me that the decoration of the vehicle had done by all Japanese G.O. The vehicle is strangely enough the jeep.! I know why it is such a car after the ceremony.

Our attendance are French G.O. and  Ms Michiyo, she is also an interpreter and a  cameraman and an observer. We left toward the church by total of six , others are a driver and a cameramen.
The cameraman got off the car repeatedly the middle and was also taking many photographs with which we are on the car.
The small  church of Protestant the other side of the bay passing the central part of Vaitape village is our marriage ceremony place.
We agreed with the oath of marriage, and  signed marriage certificate and  exchanged rings.
The wonderful marriage ceremony of a warm atmosphere finished with no problems, and, next, also made the pause solemn inside for camera photography. (In the middle of the ceremony,  it's not permitted for taking photo, so after finishing  ceremony we made same pose for photography again.)
The outside of the church, we took a photo with the pastor and the attendances,  it was windy and the skirt of the dress soared just like the one scene of "The Seven Year Itch".

And then I explain to come by jeep.
The jeep goes up rapidly the way of the steep slope of dirt uncanny to the top of the mountain referred to as going by the excursion safari. Of course, we have the tuxedo and the wedding dress on. Is it really to take us such the jungle ???
But the scenery from the summit (highest place in Bora Bora?)  was  super !!!  It seemed that beauty of Tahiti was used as the picture as it was. The marine color changing -- the blue from ultramarine, emerald green, and white and  this side  we could see the water-cottage of Hotel Bora Bora.
We took the memorial photo with this beautiful scenery for a background.

Down from the mountain, we would return to Club Med still more. We and two persons' observer ride on the boat (tahihian canoe) in front of Hotel Sofitel Marara next to Club Med Bora Bora. The cameraman returned a little before by car, and was to await alongside the pier.
I was anxious the boat was too small. The boat was decorated with the leaf of a coconut. On the boat, Tahitian sang "BoraBora Nui" etc., playing the guitar. A mood increases and it is the highest feeling! The man of the boat which passes on the way also shook the hand of blessing. (^.^)

When the boat reached at the pier, not only GO but many of GM members they were completely others greeted us all together, And  GM made the tunnel of pareo standing both sides of the pier.For us, this unexpected event was truly impressed.
We two passed in the tunnel of pareo, and went to the hut at the tip of a pier. The village maneger Carlos divides and a toast is given with champagne by all the members!! The guests of an unknown foreign country blessed with smile. It's very fun and  looks likely of Tahiti, all guests wearing the pareo and swimming suit!
Return to the restaurant area , everybody had dance time  that Club Med is !  I and my husband also dance with the wedding dress and the tuxedo and  the flower-crown of Tahiti style. (^-^;. /

When we returned to our room, the double bed was changed by the huge heart mark drawn with the flower on (*^.^*;)
At that night, we had a dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Carlos and Japanese GOs. It's the special seafood dinner. In the middle of the dinner, GO appeared a big wedding cake and brilliantly. (^.^;)

We became known widely in all the village-- everybody told us congratulations.
Having been the gladdest as for me was that entire others all blessed with smile at the marriage ceremony of Club Med. Especially the tunnel of pareo is the unforgettable memory in my life.
