Sailing the Mamanucas - Night 154

I have a strange yearning for 7-Up. Seriously, this is what I thought when I woke up today. I had been fiending bacon as well, but the Bounty Island staff delivered in the form of an immense breakfast buffet. The only thing missing was the funny guy in a hat cooking made-to-order omelets....

Transfer to Bounty Island - Night 153

I slept like a baby. Actually even better than that. After breakfast I took a kayaking trip to the nearest beach and built myself a gigantic sand castle that I can only imagine the sea has since reclaimed. Try as I might, I don’t think I’ll leave my mark on Fiji in any way. Temporary as my...

Another Day on the Boat - Night 152

I haven’t swum this much in years and boy are my arms tired. We snorkeled again in the morning and afternoon. In between I squeezed in two naps and a lunch. The boat moved to a new Harbor spot today and along the way three dolphins joined the boat and performed tricks and turns for us for...

Boarding the Wanna Taki - Night 151

I had to kill another morning at Sunrise Resort since our boat down south wasn’t due until 1pm. A bit of swimming and some volleyball with the Canadian girls and soon lunch was on. Thankfully it was our last meal at Sunrise. Though I have nothing to compare this place to, I have been...

Cave Diving - Night 150

Heavy, tropical rain fell all through the night. In my infinite wisdom I left both my towels and my swimming trunks out on the line. Even with the rain and the nets that we slept underneath, the mosquitoes still had a field day on my feet and ankles. Breakfast consisted primarily of...

The Blue Lagoon - Night 149

Promptly arriving at 7am, the shuttle bus was filled with passengers anxious to get off the mainland and out into the small islands west of Viti Levu. I had booked a six-day/five night package visiting two island sand offering two nights on a boat. The first five day would be spent in the...

Bula, Bula - Night 148

12:15 local time an Air Pacific Boeing 737-300 rumbles down the tarmac at Brisbane International Airport bound for Nadi, Fiji thus ending the passenger in seat 32A’s time in Land Down Under. As we lift through the clouds I look back at the verdant landscape of Moreton Island and wondered...

Tribes, horse boarding and desert islands... Bula!

Nadi was our first stop in Fiji. It wasn`t what we expected and travelling around on a local bus felt a little uncomfortable at first. We were the only westerners around, which we later found out was due to the embassy advising tourists not to travel to Fiji due to `civil unrest´aka s##t-loads...

The Longest Day (or Three) - Night 0

Technically October 9th began at Justin’s house in Tucson and ended somewhere over the Pacific Ocean, however, for me it stretched all the way to my landing in Fiji early on the morning of October 11th. First off, a big thanks to Ed for letting me drive his truck down to the airport. The...
