Mon Feb 18 22:54:18 2002 (nmcfarl) Book: South Pacific Moon Guide Location: Suva, Fiji We're back on net again. Pretty quick in between there. Since the last blog we flew to Nandi Airport in fiji, a quick 1.5 hour hope, and rode into Lautoka, where we landed a very nice, very cheap AC room in a local hotel. We proceed to look around, and found a very bustling, densly populated city. It was much more alive than Tonga'tapu. We had Bahajas and Samosas a snack, very good. The downside came at dinner time, pretty much only fast food was availible , but the place we ate at was cheap and really quite good. The next day, it being sunday and since nothing happens on sunday, we took the 6 hour bus ride around the island to suva. Suva is the capital, biggest city, and obne of the transport hubs. We figured it'd be a good place to figure out what we're doing. The bus ride was a great way to see country. We saw huge bamboo clumps, stories high, the first time for me and very cool they look like gigantic bushes from afar. We also saw rafts made from the same bamboo, road side fruit seller, forest and bays and mountains an oceans, all very pretty. Amzing really. We also saw 2 prirated dvds, the mummy2 and doctordoo little 2. It was a good bus ride. That night we saw and amazing sunset over suva's harbor with palm trees in the foreground and mountian's in the background with the harbor in between. Yesterday we saw the sights around here and hit the local U and the Fiji Museum. Also a good day. What we have not done is figured out what we are doing. That 's today. [we did get a lonely planet, which should help.] Actually that's NOW. Mon Feb 18 22:36:04 2002 (nmcfarl) Book: South Pacific Moon Guide Location: Suva, Fiji Brandon is visiting! He's landing in Melbourne a few hours before we do, and leaving a couple of days before we do. This should be fun! |
