We stayed in Nadi Bay Hotel again and it was even nicer then i remembered and a hot shower has never felt so good! Next day we went into the town with Emily - a girl we met on the trip. I was V hot and defo an experience - half the town has proper shops like vodafone and the other are like shakes and even in most the shops you have to barter for a price.

They have 2 swimming pool, 2 restaurants and even a massage place. We set off and tues on a 7 day island hoppi...

When we arrived in Queenstown it was grey and cloudy, we parked up and meet up withVicky and James who had b...
