Date ideas
You and your partner have a trip to Bora Bora planned. The bungalows sit over the water. Waves move below them. These dates help you prepare without rush. You pack, shop and talk about the details together. One date involves filling out luggage tags with notes. The other dates include a picnic, shopping and walks. They cost little and take one or two hours each. Pick a few to do before you leave. This way you feel ready when you get there.
