Made it to the last stop! We flew out of Fiji at 10am, flight FJ411 on a Boeing 747-400 (irrelevant, geeky info for you there). I watched the Accidental Husband which was predictable but alright. I wanted to watch Tangled or The King's Speech but I'm saving them for when I get home.

Probably the shortest entry ever coming up: I got up late, lazed in the shade by the pool feeling ill, had a kids portion of plain spaghetti for lunch, spent the afternoon in bed, got up for an hour and managed a starter for dinner, and was back in bed before 8pm.
