We left Sydney and flew to Hong Kong, we stayed here for two nights. We booked a hotel on the internet and when we arrived it is a huge 4 star hotel, very posh. We spent the day walking around the streets and the huge shopping malls. The streets were full of bright coloured signs and bustling with lots of Chinese people. The city was quite smelly and dirty and there was no clean air. The weather was humid so this didnt help.

We have spent the last two days in Sydney trying to sort out our flights home. We are flying to Hong Kong tomorrow and then stay there for 10 days and the next available flight isnt until then. Its very busy at the moment.

We have been island hopping in the Yasawa group of islands. We first sailed to Nananu-Lailai. This island was lovely our hut was very basic with sand on the floor and spiders in the roof and no electricity. We walked to the other side of the island to Blue Lagoon where the film was filmed. We then went to Naviti, this resort was really nice and our Bure was huge with ensuite bathroom. We layed on the beach here for two days. Steve went Manta Ray hunting...

We spent four days on the Feejee Experience. We left Nadi and went to the Coral Coast. During this day we visited one of the nicest beaches on the mainland and went sand boarding on huge sand dunes. We then made our way to Suva. We went on a longboat ride up a river and then river tubing down the river, stopping at a waterfall to jump in. We then spent the night at Suva the capital of Fiji. The next day we visited a school and village. Here we part...

We have been spending our time sat in a car market trying with great difficulty to sell our van. We finally managed to sell it this morning. We have spent the day spending the money on tours in Fiji. Only two days in New Zealand and we are off to sunny Fiji to get a tan and lie on the beach all day.
