we got to the port and spent 4.5hours to get to our first island..Coral View....It was extremely windy there but so beautiful....everything was blue!! pretty much we were feed when they told us...and with a bang of a drum we would have to come running...ok maybe it was more organised and civil then it sounds!!

we did a summit walk that evening and i of course walked onto a big metal steak...go going michelle...it bloody well hurt!!and so i went bare foot for the next two weeks. well unless i was hiking...

we had games at night just to keep us occupied...like musical chairs, limbo, congo dancing with its own twists and other things...not forgetting the Bula dance...it made you stop caring because everyone looked like twats :) we went to the blue lagoon (where Brook Shields filmed the Blue Lagoon) and snorkled...lots of fish and loads of Coral!! it was just beautiful!! and nicely sheltered!!

On our second day we went to the caves (took 45min boat ride...tiny boat on choppy water....so funny but wet!!) we went swimming in the caves and then the second cave was enclosed completely so you had to swim under the rock to get in and then it was pitch black in there and the smallest noise was amplified like crazy!!..poor Emily came up to early on the way out and took a chuck of skin off her forehead off the rocks.We got soaked again on the way back in the little boat but we gradually got used to this...the wet wasnt  We left that day for the Wana taki bost experience.....
