7 June 2011 (-1 in time zone):

Departure hall, where we were serenaded by an old man on a ukelele when boarding. He serenaded us when we arrived too. He sang about how he's sad to see us go back to the cold - I felt lucky that this is still the beginning of my trip in tropical Polynesia!

7 June 2011 (-1 in time zone):

Spent the entire day lounging around the lagoon. Since my plane back is at around 1am (cheaper to hire people during the night to load luggage as many have day jobs), I took a nap in the hostel lobby with some others, surrounded by mosquitos. The room surrounded by glass by the beach was pretty cozy in the wind. I thought the drawings on the departure tax sticker were cute.
