Fiji - The World's Friendliest Paradise




I was fortunate to be able to visit the beautiful Fijian Islands a couple of years ago, and got to see many of the different resorts such as Castaway Island Resort, Malolo Resort, and others. I also got to take the three day blue lagoon cruise and they almost had to drag me off the boat at the end. It is a wonderful way to see totally unspoiled islands. The snorkeling is the best I have ever experienced. At night, the crew comes out on the deck and plays guitars and everyone is invited to join in on a sing-along. Every morning, the captain would announce by loudspeaker swim time, and you could go out for a morning swim. The meals were fabulous, and they always had morning and afternoon tea. The first picture you see is the crew of the cruise singing us a traditional Fijian farewell song. The music in Fiji is wonderful!
We enjoyed some of the local songs and dances at Castaway Island Resort as well as the traditional Fijian Kava Ceremony.
