Arrived in Fiji in the pitch dark, all we could see was the light from the fires where the sugar cane stubble is burnt. The smell the fires give off is really sweet. It was funny how our taxi overtook the fire truck on its was to help put them out. This morning we really have woken up to Paradise. The hotel looks beautiful we especially loved the idea of calling for Golf buggy to take us to breakfast. The jacuzzi bath is on the balcony over looking the lagoon ...

Bondi beach .... can't really believe it we are here on the middle of winter and there are people sun bathing . Had an ice cream well you just have to don't you. Then went to the Opera house tonight it's Tosca.

Fantastic trip to the blue mountains, Leura and surrounding area. Cable car ride and the worlds steepest railway not for the feint hearted ! I find out now !!! Then off to Featherdale to hand feed Kangaroos and stoke Koalas just amazing.

Arrived in Sydney amazing views of the Opera house and the bridge from the roof top pool. Went out for a meal in The Rocks then back to the hotel for a cocktail and bed. Early morning tomorrow off to the Blue Mountains.

We're just off on our trip to Green island it's a bit rocky as it quite rough but we are just about managing. The waves are quite high and splashing as far back as the aft deck. The afternoon was great with a glass bottom boat trip to see the coral close up and the fish. Truly amazing !! The return trip was really choppy for the first ten to fifteen minutes but a little calmer from then on in. Can't say we were not pleased to reach solid ground.
