The Fijian way

Nisa Bula! As I stumble through the arrival hall with a bottle of duty-free liquor (which my host family asked me to purchase) after getting like my eighth Fiji passport stamp, I spot my name hastily scribbled on a piece of paper. His name is Ratu, ... Read more >

Last days in Fiji

Tue, 21 Jul 2009 | By rich | Views [623]

July 18: We're back on the mainland for a couple days and we've heard the Coral Coast has really nice beaches. Plus we want to see the capital; Suva. We've missed the tourist bus so the next best option is a local bus for the 3 hour journey. Its ... Read more >

Fijian Resort Life

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 | By rich | Views [517]

Our days in Fiji are relaxing and we enjoy the resort life. We drink kava, race crabs, learn how to open coconuts and even have a near death experience with a falling coconut.  *A word of advice, if you sit under a palm tree, make sure there are no ... Read more >

And then the rain came down

It's a cloudy start to the day but the sun is peaking through and it's hot so we suit up in our bathers and head out for breakfast. A couple of hours later we're playing darts on the beach and it starts to drizzle. No problem, we go under shelter and ... Read more >

The cheapest boat ride from Nadi leaves from our hostel's beach. It's a small wooden boat, with two wooden benches on the inside and we sit facing the other passengers. Its hot, stuffy and I wouldn't recommend it if you get claustrophobic. No wonder ... Read more >

Why Fiji?

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 | By rich | Views [381]

We decided to come to Fiji because it was offered as a free stopover on our flight from LA to Australia. Eleven months ago when our travel agent asked us how much time we wanted to stay in Fiji, we said 3 weeks. Why not? The only thing we knew was ... Read more >

Fiji - Nadi

It's about 6am, 9th July. But wait, we left LA on the 7th. Where did the 8th go? How did we lose a day??? We flew for 12 hours but ended up a day ahead of LA time. Somewhere along the way we crossed the international date line and lost a day.  The ... Read more >

"Bula" allemaal! Hier eindelijk weer een berichtje van ons. Na 2 weken in Fiji zijn we weer teruggekeerd in Brisbane. De afgelopen tijd waren we nogal afgesloten van de buitenwereld dus vandaar dat het even heeft moeten duren.. Fiji was ... Read more >

Well landing in Fiji is nothing like our experience in Sydney or Auckland airports. we arrived at Fiji main airport in a downpour and in the dark only to find the airport small and dark as well. Our resort forgot to send someone to meet & greet us ... Read more >

We had an awesome time in Fiji. I've never been to a country where the local people are so genuinely kind and welcoming. Plus the scenery was amazing! Brad's parents flew in the morning after us and it was so wonderful and funny to see them again.... Read more >

BULA!

Mon, 29 Dec 2008 | By annamar810 | Views [995]

Now I know that in many ways I considered this past year a bit of an indulgent and protracted holiday, but that was until I experienced the blissed out tropical indulgence of Fiji. That's what I call a holiday! Before you can truly experience Fiji- ... Read more >
