Bounty Island - Kuata
I had a reasonable night of sleep, considering that I had toasted my back a little. However I don't think that Lynne slept well at all because her sunburn was just too sore. So to have to put a heavy rucksack on the same sunburnt shoulders later on that ...
Bula from Suva
We were in Suva, Fiji today. Fiji has 333 islands ranging in size from more than 7,000 sq. miles to tiny coral atolls that barely break the surface of the sea. Viti Leva (Great Fiji) is one of the largest and Suva is its capitol.The land is much the same ...
Day 176: Mololo Island, Fiji
... ground kava root soaked in water to produce a muddy, slightly intoxicating brew was also introduced to Captain Cook on his voyages though these Pacific islands (He didn't stop at Fiji.). It has a subtle, earthy taste but does nothing to relieve my ...
Fresh fruit in Fiji
... of the memories had been slightly changed in my head and weren't quite right anymore. Most of the memories happened for me in Suva, Fiji's capital. That is where I used to live. Suva was our third stop in Fiji, so I'm not working chronologically here, ...
2.55pm - Fiji Time
... a bit tiresome, and I’ve only been here a day! Still, that’s a city for you, even a small one like Suva. Fiji’s capital is all hustle and bustle, and yet still has that quaint island charm. The traffic officers wear white gloves and the ...
Back to Suva
... shower. On my way there I noticed the bus was already there. I thought for a second to ask, but then thought, "no, this is Fiji, everything is always late". But this time, the bus left 30 minutes early. So on my way out from the shower I could just hear ...
Island Hopping in Paradise
... lookout for huntsman and red back spiders - she doesn't want to come across either! As you can see from our pictures Fiji was a tropical paradise. The coral, snorkelling, diving, beaches and scenery were stunning. It could have been a bit better ...
Somewhere in the South Pacific
... their clothes in the sea. The money is very similar to ours- 50p pieces etc. with a very young looking queen on the notes! Fiji was a British Colony til either 1894 or 1960s I'm not sure... but it was once a british colony! I wanted to get to the bus ...
Last day diving
I've found a cheaper way to write up my travelogue- use word to write it up, then connect to the internet and copy and paste it- crafty huh? Anyway I'll carry on more or less where I left off- on Wednesday I had my last 2 dives, which were great. We ...
Better 'fee-jee' time than never
... and took no with good grace. The city is big enough and, appears at least to be, affluent enough, to create a buzz. Suva has plenty of grandiose architecture, a legacy of its colonial past, some of it standing magnificently, if a little incongruously ...
-1 sleeps till Fiji!
... , it was 27 degrees. Not a cloud in the sky. Arrived in Nadi (pronounced Nandi. Damn those silent invisible N's!) in Fiji at 2(?) local time, 25 degrees, p!ssing down with rain. Where did I go wrong? It has cleared up though, ...
Day 177-8: Mololo Island, Fiji
This is insane. I'm on an attractive tropical island in calm, sunny weather. There's a pool, snorkelling gear, kayaks and other distractions, but I'm laid up in my room, hiding away from the mosquitoes, popping painkilling pills to endure a painful ...
Waya Lai Lai Resort!
... colorful fish among the coral! The gorgeous views reminded me of how much I love snorkeling and how lucky I was to be in beautiful Fiji. When we came back, the top deck was opened and we were free to jump off from the top! Everyone was a little ...
The RAIN Forest
... , I jump in a taxi and head to the jetty where I'm supposed to board my ship to Taveuni, the third largest island of the Fiji group. Where the taxi drops me off is typically third world with all kinds of people sitting under a small shelter with goods and ...

Transport and Rain
... took us to a place that did great chicken pies! Just what we needed after the morning soaking. We got on the next bus to Suva (on which I fell asleep), and then got a taxi up to the Raintree lodge where I'm staying. Its quite a nice place, with big lakes ...

Bitten half to death
Last night i had crab in coconut sauce- and I kid you not, the crab was the size of a lobster!! It was actually massive . After dinner I was feeling really sleepy, so I ended up going to sleep about 8:30- and opted for the earplugs as I thought there ...
Feejee experience cont
... take Petty on Mark and keep giving us the best rooms! Next day, visit to the local school: Today we drove through the city of Suva. I have to say despite what you heard or hear from the media, it was a very peaceful city and we didn't come across any ...
Carry On Couchsurfing
... We'd decided to carry on couchsurfing but ran into an unforeseen problem when we rang Sandy, the host we'd arranged to stay with in Suva. She'd got her dates mixed up and already had 2 couchsurfers staying there, and 2 cousins on their way as well as a ...
The People of Fiji
The people of Fiji are extemely friendly. There is also a large Indo-Fijan population but we have had little contact with them. The Indian people run all the stores and commerce where the Fijians are mostly farmers and fishermen. At ...
Sunrise Lagoon, Nanuya Lai Lai
We have been in the Yasawa Islands now for 4 nights and the weather has been pretty bad. We are staying in a little hut called a bure on the beach, and it's literally right on the beach as the sea at high tide is about 5 meters away from us! It's really ...
