Mo'orea

About six months ago, while surfing around, I was looking at a website about Mo'orea trying to work out where the One Particular Harbour would be when SWMBO looked over my shoulder and asked where the images were from.
"Mo'orea, Tahiti" I said.
"That's pretty" she said.
"Even the wholesale prices are pretty expensive" I offered.
"Oh that's a pity" ended the conversation.
A couple of nights ago, SWMBO pipes up "You know that Buffett song, One Particular Harbour?"
"Yes" says I
"That's about Tahiti, Mo'orea, I think" she continued.
"Yeah, I read that somewhere" I said.
Then she dropped a bombshell - "We should look at going there next year, I think that my work is picking up a travel agency for Tahiti"
About twenty minutes later, I managed to recover the power of speech and said "Maybe we should look into it".
Well fingers are crossed. The pilgrimage is on the radar, now I just need a way to survive the extra hours at work that I will need to do...
I realise now why I married her.
