BULA!!! The Fiji adventure begins....... We arrived in Nadi early evening on Thursday and met up with Louise, a girl from the Kiwi Experience, at out hostel. Our second 32 bed dorm of our trip but this one didn't really feel like it because the beds were segregated into fours.

What a f***ing roller coaster....... Myself, Pete, Steve, Dan, the Jills, and Lolo (a German we picked up along the way) left Taupo on Monday to head to Auckland.

Took us just under 2 hours which included a stop off at some hot springs on the way. That evening we cooked a massive Mexican meal between us. Fajitas and nachos. Amazing meal but not cheap. We grabbed some goon and then headed to ...
