Treasure Island Resort

... br><br>Then we played volleyball. It was a lot of fun. I got hit in my privates with the volleyball. Yeah, laugh as hard as you can! It wasn&#8217;t funny at the time.<br> <br>At night, they had Island games which was also a lot of fun until I got crushed by five guys. They were heavy and they really hurt my leg. The last day I hated because we were leaving, I wished we could stay longer and it felt like home. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>

... islands surrounding us. We could also see the huge rock that is the highest point of the island. We walked down into the village and the villagers said 'bula!' (hello) and the children waved. The village had pigs running about, dogs, little shacks and children everywhere. We felt like we had walked straight back into Laos. we went into a school where the children squealed with delight and we were treated to songs such as Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. They were so enthusiastic and ...

... see, but the waves are not near as big as what was shown in the movie and there are many neighboring islands off the side of the island that the cameras never showed.  We snorkel where Tom Hanks headed up on his make-shift boat.  It is ok, but much of the coral has been heavily walked on.  I head out pretty far to the end of a rocky cliff area where the waves are breaking.  The current starts pulling me out to the sea and seems like it is pretty strong just passed the ...

... and said BULA!<br><br>For our entire time in Mango Bay it rained but it didn't stop us having a good time. We met three girls who were all travelling separately and together we passed our rainy days betting on crab races, playing musical statues and in the bar!<br><br>We all left on the same day to go to Pacific Harbour we were hoping for some sun but it didn't happen! It had rained so much that it wasn't safe to do our trek in the Namosi Highlands. So that left us with only tubing the ...

... then drops us at a beach we can pretty much see and could definitely have walked to and here we wait another hour for the boat. Eventually we get on the 'Morning Breeze' along with supplies and provisions, and a bunch of people from the mainland. The boat takes off and it's going to be an uncomfortable ride. Bumping along the water its takes almost a full hour to cover t he 30km of water, threading between partially submerged rocks, sandbars and pristine strips of rainforest skirted ...

... they travel in swarms). We were the last stop (as usual) and arrived in our hotel. It's nice, even though we are only here for 2 days, to not get sandy within two minutes of washing the sand off us for once. I must admit that that is the most frustrating thing about this last week (for me personally it was constantly getting bitten). The scenery and islands were absolutely beautiful though, which more than makes up for it.

... ever met. Everywhere u go u say BULLA to every one (which means hello) and theyd happy reply to u saying BULLA BULLA!. The place we stayed was at a 5 star resort. There was a little bar that was run by this massive fijian bloke named benni. He was awesome, hed make us all these nice cocktails and when the girls go to bed, me n the other guys would stay and he'd just constantly be feeding us free beer, and just chattin away having a good ...

... again, coz we liked it so<br>much!! Ooh, toby really classes himself as a salty sea dog now, because<br>(get this...) he wrestled with an Octopus!!!! Mad! He was swimming<br>along, and saw a huge orange eye staring at him, so he went to get a<br>stick (as you do) and poked it!! Not surprisingly it whipped out two<br>tentacle/arms the size of tobys and tugged!!! Then it changed colour,<br>purple to ...
