Back from Fiji...


So, the resort we stayed in was Warwick Resort. A very nice place however the first night we stayed we must've book into the family side of the place as we were kept awake by crying babies and a couple arguing in the hallway then woken up at 6am the next morning by more babies. Once we asked to be upgraded to the adult side it was just peace and quiet - this was the adult pool outside.


This area of Fiji is known as the Coral Coast unfortunately for us we didn't see alot of Coral - quite sad really. This Blue Star Coral looks like a starfish and is not recommended to be touched.


When we walked past the resort along the beach we could see quite a lot of rubbish strewn for quite  along distance. Fiji is quite a dirty country, you would think that with it being a tourist spot they would look after it.


At one end of the beach there were these shacks used for not just living in but also selling fresh fruit and massages - one of them was promoting safe tattoos by an artist.


In Fiji the cows, horses and dogs roam freely. Our taxi driver David was telling us that if you don't have your cow branded with your particular brand and it's found roaming they round up all the cattle at least twice a year and take them away, if you can't prove it's yours you don't get it back. With the dogs the locals feed and look after them, the ones we found on the beach looked very healthy and were so friendly, I didn't want to pat them so much as I had no idea what vaccinations they had had done, if any. Sometimes the locals round them up and take them pig hunting.

It's Fiji Time


Today we are in day 2 of our holiday in Fiji. We are staying at the Warwick Resort - this is the view from the edge of the grass outside the resort looking out over the water and the seafood restaurant.

It's taken us until now to completely wind down but it's nice waking up to the sound of waves and seeing all the interesting things the country has to offer.

Yesterday we walked around the beach and saw mud crabs, different coloured tropical fish and a white and black poisonous snake. We did attempt to go snorkeling but all the gear was booked out so fingers crossed for today.
