Above, a few shots taken around town in Papeete, the capital of French Polynesia and the main town on Tahiti. You can also see Moorea, a next-door island, in these shots as you could from the beach at my hotel, which is several miles back east or counter-clockwise around the island. Below are several shots of Papeete’s Town Hall, all decked out for Christmas — I took these shots on December 31st in Tahiti. Nice way to truly see out the old year, huh? 🙂 Tough life, but someone’s gotta do it…
