The 2 and 1/5 days means 2 days
Got to Fiji at 1 am, quiet late and
because of the hurricane, there was no electricity, meaning no phone call, no
internet and no banking. Had no plan to stay in Fiji, and have no choice but to
stay another 4 days to check my flight to New Caledonia. How nice! the
adventure only about to start.
Lucky enough to ask for some
recommendations of a hostel from a friend before I leave the US, after a long
time waiting inside the airport for my luggage, I passed security and curious
to see if the driver of the hostel is there or if I will spend my night at the
airport J Annnnnd, he was there, great sometimes the Fiji time can
work on my advantage J
Got some sleep and woke up in the
morning to make my phone calls: to the airline, to see if there is a way I can
get to New Caledonia before, to my family and let them know I’m well arrived.
No, no electricity, which means no
phone no internet, no nothing. I played calm and stayed at the reception
thinking on what to do and waiting for the receptionist to charge my computer?
After 1hour waiting and talking with
people next to me who were sharing their Fiji experience as well, I decided to
join this group of people who are taking a tour of the island.
Packed and joined the tour forgetting
about the hustle and worry about what to do tog et to Noumea before the 22nd,
after all I’m in Fiji, I should take advantage of it.
The tour of 2and1/2 days started. Made
first stop at one of the nice beaches of Fiji, except after the hurricane
nothing was nice about it.
From there, our second stop was the unexpected adventure of Sand-boarding, amazing experience.
For the rest of the day, we drove through the Coral Coast of Fiji and stayed in Mango Bay, the resort that inspire relaxation and calm, except for all the
frogs I came across my walk from the room to the dining area. Ahhhhhhhhh!
Well
it’s also part of the adventure J
The second day of the tour starts with
a hike in the rain forest. It looked like we’re the first to walk in the forest
after the hurricane. Green, calm, active and arouse. Tropical plants, water
falls and juming from rocks into waterfalls (2 shots from the bucket list done
in one day awesome.)
One more thing done from the bucket list: cruising the Navoua River on a small boat and coming across wild indigenous Fijian kids cruising the river hunting in their kayak, and when they saw us they started singing, shouting and dancing in the water: Authentic and unique experience. It only happens in Fiji.
