Bula from Fiji!

We just have a few minutes on the internet, but we thought we would try to do a quick post. We made it to Fiji (the flight wasn't so bad) and are having a great time. The beach and water here is beautiful - the water is crystal clear and the snorkeling is awesome. There is coral in every color you could imagine, lots of colorful fish, and we even saw an octopus. The first resort we stayed at was pretty basic (it was a little like camping in a hut), but it was still really cool. It was village owned and the money they make goes to build and keep up the school, church, and community center. We stayed there a couple of nights and are now at our nicest resort for 5 nights so that Adam can get Scuba certified. This resort is great with lots of good food, massages, and hot showers...but so far since we have got here we haven't had much sunshine. Today it looks like the sun is starting to peak through, so keep your fingers crossed!

We have met a good many people from Europe that are doing the same type thing that we are, so we have got to hear all their stories. Yesterday we met a couple from Germany that spent a year in NZ in the same town we are thinking about living. They said they loved it which made us a lot more excited to get there.

Time is up on the internet...Talk to ya soon!
