Woohoo! I'm here in Fiji, BULA! It feels a bit surreal, I never thought I'd get to Fiji on my trip to Australia. The flight with Air Pacific went well - I slept through most of the 3hr 30min flight, due to being tired from nights and then going to a gig last night in Sydney. I know I'm a bit crazy, but I like to cram it all in! So, after I had collected another stamp in my passport following my arrival in Nadi, I was transported to my hotel, where I am staying for 2 nights. Fijians are known for their hospitality, but nothing prepares you for the welcome they give you. It's almost overwhelming. Even as I was being escorted to my room, other staff members would stop and shake my hand in the corridor and introduce themselves. The Novotel hotel looks beautiful, it is set in large tropical gardens with lights which are actually fires burning on tall poles, which really makes it feel Fijian. I might book a tour for tomorrow, but I know that I have a pretty active few days ahead and this is supposed to be a relaxing holiday, so I may just devour a book by the pool and sample one of the amazing cocktails I've seen on the menu! Anyway, must get some sleep ready for the 'all you can eat' brekkie tomorrow xx
