Fiji

I could spend ages writing down everything I got up to in Fiji, but it'd make things a little bit long and boring. Instead, here's a general impression of the islands.

I haven't been anywhere quite like Fiji yet, the people are so much more relaxed and friendlier. Almost everyone you see says a big, "Bula!" with an even bigger smile. The islands themselves range from basic to plush and differ range in size all the way down to one that you can walk round in three minutes (yes, we did try it).

The other great thing is that the number of people hopping between islands is pretty small. So, after the first day or two you just keep bumping in to people you've met. The best one was bumping in to Steph, Katie, and Laura (friends from home). I knew they were probably in Fiji but had no idea where until I got off the boat and they waved at me from the beach! That makes three countries we've manged to meet up in, whether we'll manage it in the US remains to be seen... watch this space.

I'll post more tomorrow as I'm a little tired after having arrived before I've even taken off! (Don't you just love time zones?)
