What a day we have had in Fiji!
This morning we took an "Eco Tour" that took us first to a hot mud pool where everyone got covered in mud. Then a natural hot spring to wash off.
We followed that with about a 1.5 mile hike to an amazing waterfall where the kids got into the falls and we took some awesome photos.
Following the waterfall, we went in to Fiji village where we were served lunch on a leaf with lots of fresh picked fruit and some amazing stuff.
Then, the chief of the village led us in a Kava ceremony (tastes like celery juice)
following this, we had a group of dancers perform for us some really great numbers.
We returned to our hostel at 3:30 where those who wanted to can take showers while we wait for dinner at 5pm then our bus to the airport at 6:30.
This email is a bit of a time travel since it is 4:15pm here and we arrive in LAX three hours in the past.
Anyway, everyone had a great time today and it proved an ideal finish for our visit. Between Mana and the Fiji village visit, our stay in Fiji was easily as exciting and interesting as the New Zealand visit.
We will see you all VERY SOON and look forward to sharing the stories from this amazing trip!
Cheers from Fiji
