Snorkelling and fishing trip. Awesome.

Woke up this morning and Bobo had hired his friend’s boat to take us out for the day snorkelling and fishing. Although it was heavy rain when we awoke, as soon as we were ready it was fantastic weather for the whole day, so we were very lucky. To get to the boat we walked for about 15 minutes...

A great big slice of paradise

We awoke slightly delicate today, and had breakfast before packing up ready to move on to Bobo’s farm. They were planning to pick us up mid-afternoon, but in fact called around 11 and said they were early. We were picked up by Bobo’s dRiver and driven over the very picturesque coastal road...

Too much testosterone for 1 club

Waved goodbye to Julian this morning as he had to get back to the main Island for his flight out and the rest of us went for a stroll around town and went to the internet café while Chris searched for somewhere to get some clothes repaired. It was again baking, but we decided to explore...

Good Friday Celebrations

Chris woke me at 9am this morning as Leila the owner of Mary’s Lodge said we were welcome to go up and visit the church here in Levuka to join in with the Good Friday celebrations especially as many of the local children were doing performances. So we woke Abbe, Andy and Julian and then ate...

An awesomely sunny day

What a gorgeous day! I couldn’t believe it when we awoke to fantastically beautiful blue skies, a calm sea and more importantly no rain. Perfect day to enjoy Fiji and Levuka at its best. Think some relaxing and Sunshine was in order so after eating breakfast we wandered to the shops for a...

We are now in 'The Real Fiji'

Woke up at 6 and banged on Andy and Abbe’s door to wake them up, before showering, packing and then making our way to the restaurant for breakfast, which was a rubbish choice of toast (which I no longer eat) or black tea as they had run out of milk, orange juice, eggs, and fruit. Luckily Abbe...

Planning our escape

We thankfully awoke to no cyclone destruction, which to be fair we were all pretty terrified about, so planned our escape - Last day in Nadi today! Am so excited. Cannot wait to go exploring a bit more! The weather is slowly improving and the ferries have now started to operate again. We...

We are safe

Just a quick blog entry to keep everyone updated... The price to use this computer is on the verge of criminal, so won't talk for long or have time to write any more blogs... After the recent floods and cyclone last night things are starting to get back to Normal and the sun is even...

To the shops to stock up before the cyclone hits...

In the night we got a text about a cyclone warning due to hit Fiji in the next 24-36 hours, so we decided to take a stroll into the local shops with Andy, Abbe and Julian, to get some supplies. After getting to the main supermarket and finding it closed, we continued on under direction from...

In search for a hang-over cure

Woke up at 3pm today feeling very delicate and finally managed to emerge from our rooms at 4pm in desperate need of some food. We were very late for our complimentary breakfast of over-cooked eggs and still the kitchen was closed for any other food, so, craving an Indian we prepared ourselves...
