Your favorite place

 


This is an interesting question and everyone has their favorite place.  Whether it's memories with a loved one, a trip you took in your youth or an exotic trip it's always interesting to hear people's responses.

Bora Bora is surrounded by sand-fringed motus and a turquoise lagoon protected by a coral reef.  It's known for it's scuba diving.  At the islands center rises Mt. Otemanu a 727 meter dormant volcano.  There are a lot of very expensive luxury resorts where some guest bungalows are perched over the water on stilts.
