Flag of Fiji  , Yasawa Islands,
Wednesday, December 3, 2008

So I'm not entering this from the island itself, since there was no electricity, nor running water.  Wow, this was absolutely beautiful!  On Monday afternoon, we arrived at the island and within two minutes completed our tour!It included finding the beach where the sun would set, and the beach where our bures where, was where the sun would rise.  There was a third beach as well, where the snorkelling was also great.  In the evening, we had cava and enjoyed pina coladas while eating our dinner. 

Then, on Tuesday, after a tonne of rain at night, the sky was blue all day again, and we walked up a hill to see the island better.  We also got demos on opening coconut and making baskets from coconut leaves (a real, live, basket weaving course!).  Finally, we went to Naviti island and visited a village and had more cava and watched some performances and bought a bit of jewellry.  Tuesday night was a lovo feast (cooked from under the ground) with more pina coladas, and Wednesday I actually got up at 5:30 to see the sun rise.  We left early, stopped at a couple spots on the way back.
