Last visit to Malinoa Island

With our departure from Tonga after 3 fabulous years creeping up on us very quickly, we started to squeeze in "the lasts" of everything.  We had a very long run of bad weather in Nov and Dec so finding a good weekend to get out to our favourite island was proving difficult. Finally we had a cracker of a Sunday, so off we went, along with our neighbours Mal and Karen, who had their son and daughter in law over from Oz for a visit. It was a great day and when we wake up every Sunday morning to great weather we all wish we could go back there.

Lyndon and Emily enjoying the great outdoors.

Captain Quirke and the mighty Blah Blah!

Some lovely coral on our snorkel tour.

These little blue fish were everywhere.

The beach at Malinoa changes considerably with the tide and winds and looks completely different every time we go there. This tree stump was no where near water or sand the last time we were there.

Ahh, the serenity!

One last chance at trying to be romantic.

Emily and I trying to be arty with this shot, but it didn't turn out the way we wanted. Still, the view at the end of our feet is nice.

The Bishop family - Anna, Cal, Tori, Mal and Karen.

Our little set up for the day.

The last "Where the bloody hell are you" shot for awhile.
Thanks for the memories Malinoa!!!
