Paul is two things, he is an incurable romantic and he is addicted to traveling. So it’s only natural that when he heard that the Cook Islands are frequently considered to be the greatest secret in the Pacific, he absolutely had to go and he wanted to take a date. As can sometimes happen with extreme romantic individuals, Paul seemed to be slightly more into the idea of romance than with whom he was enjoying the experience. A good example of this occurs every year on February fourteenth. Regardless of the amount of time he has been dating a woman he goes to every length possible to make Valentine’s Day an event to remember. This was even true for the one year that he didn’t have a girlfriend on that significant date. He ended up having a first date with a woman and scheduled it on Valentine’s Day just so he could carry out his annual ritual of roses, wine, chocolate and fine dining followed by a river cruise.
When Paul found out about the intrigue of Cook Islands he happened to be in a relationship with Judy, a woman he had been dating for two months, which was a long time for him. Unfortunately he had also been thinking about ending things with Judy as she was just too practical for him and was showing signs of growing tired of the constant love notes and surprises. So, while this seemed like the perfect romantic trip to Paul he found himself in something of a dilemma. He wasn’t sure if he should plan the trip and make reservations in a Cook Islands hotel right away or if he should hold off, wait for Judy to break up with him and take someone else. Well, one other tendency Paul had was to be impatient, or as he preferred to say, spontaneous. So, once again another surprise came Judy’s way and she was presented with the tickets and reservations. This time she was actually excited and the two of them had a fabulous time, and yes it was even romantic with the beautiful beaches and sensational sunsets. They spent a full week on Rarotonga, one of the largest of the fifteen islands, which is also were they flew into.
