After a beautiful 2 hour cruise here, and seeing dolphins along the way, we arrived at Nabua Lodge. First impressions are good, beautiful waters, lovely staff. Booked into a dorm but we ended up on a beachfront bure so that was 'good'. A free upgrade, a little house to ourselves instead of a 10 bed dorm, what's to be sad about... It was just not for me!!!

Got in at 5.30am FIJI time, which would have been 10.30am LA time, the day before and have to try and stay up until bedtime, I can't stay up till bedtime on a normal day, never mind having travelled for about 20...
