Coming home to a place I've never been before. It's Fee-Gee (Fiji)
Cue John Denver's Sunshine On My Shoulders. |
You can't get any further away before you start coming back.Imagine sailing across the blue waters of the South Pacific, passing by idylic islands, teeming with exotic fish and majestic coral reefs--Oh wait I don't have to use my imagination because what you see is what you get. Bula.
On Fiji Islands-Suva-PineApple Express
Ah Suva!, from sea you looks so promising, despite the oil slick...but in town, it looks like paradise has committed suicide. I thought cyclone season was over.
This is like if that Biggie Smalls rapper met the Afghan Kush,and they had a baby.
Fiji-Dravuni- Another Day Another Island-Escape To Reality
Fiji has over 300 islands- I have seen about 25 so far this trip. I'm concerned that "the wow factor" no longer applies. Yet if I take an imaginary a ride down Southern California's Carmageddon- Interstate 405, breath in some smog while stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. I still want to escape to MY reality--being in the South Pacific! I love the Free Parking for all boats, ships and anything that floats.
Freedom can certainly be purchased in a 7 days vacation on one of these idyllic islands. I just happened to visit one of them, and stayed the day. Priceless.
