Day 16 - Davui to Denarau 7am and its raining, well to be more accurate it's chucking it down, stair-rods! This is their rainy season but it's the first we've seen since arriving so mustn't complain, I guess it gives us a true sense of this place and its weather systems. Have seen the sun poking through the clouds though so hopefully it won't last long and we can enjoy our last morning, although looking at the sky now I'm not so sure. It's also very, very h...

Day 16 - Royal Davui Yet another day on this South Sea island paradise, oh it's such a chore, all this luxury. Who am I kidding, I love it; sun, sun and yet more sun. It's been quite an active day, trying frantically to make the most of our time here. A little more wind today so have been able to get the Hobie Cat launched and go sailing. We had a super tack out almost to the next island but on the way back the wind kept dying away and becalming us. They have s...

Day 15 Royal Davui Isalnd, Fiji Our second day on this tropical paradise. Things are so laidback here they are almost horizontal.

I was welling up listening and it wasn't even for us so goodness knows what will happen when we go on Wed afternoon, I shall be blubbing all th...

Day 14 - Denarau to Royal Davui Island. Fiji Well not too much of a lie in as it was really noisy here in the Hilton. I was fine as I had ear plugs in (seasoned traveller you see; well actually spending far too many nights in anonymous hotels whilst working), but Bill didn't and was awake half the night. Anyway nice leisurely breakfast and a walk along the beach before checking out. The car to the airport arrived spot on time and we felt like royalty being...

Day 12/13 Oahu to Fiji Up even earlier today 4:30 to get the 5:15 pickup to the airport. My body is begining to forget what sleep is but strangely I don't seem to feel too bad on it. It must be the opposite of S.A.D. i.e. the brightness of the sun makes you want to hibernate less or something. At the time of writing it is 9:20pm and the clocks have gone back one hour but forward a day, very confusing. We left Hawaii on Friday and got to Fiji on Saturday losi...
