Cook Islands: Rarotonga

I received this nice card some years ago. It's from the Cook Islands and to be more specific from Rarotonga. Rarotonga is the most populous island of the Cook Islands, with a population of 10,572 (census 2011)  out of the country's total resident population of 14,974.

The card shows the cruise ship Tahitian Princess in front of the island of Rarotonga.



Stamps: 
Wildlife: Lampides boeticus (female) 40 ct - Issued: 20-03-2007
The 200th Anniversary of the Death of Captain James Cook, 1728-1779  - Issued: 23-07-1979


Thanks to my friend Kristin for this great card!
