BULA!!

Kory surprised me with a honeymoon to Fiji! I only had a few clues and NEVER would have guessed Fiji. I didn't even know where to find Fiji on a map (it's in the South Pacific near New Zealand for those of you who are geographically challenged like me. ) I told Kory I just wanted to relax and not feel like I had to be out seeing and doing things unless I wanted to. Fiji was perfect for this purpose. It was a nice place to de-stress from the wedding. The locals were so friendly and told us "Bula!" everywhere we went; this means "hello" and "welcome" in Fijian. They also told us to tell all our friends about our "holiday in Fiji" so they will visit too.

Our first sunset on the beach just outside our resort.
 
The view from our balcony.

Hiking through the Garden of the Sleeping Giant.

This was the group that serenaded us from our balcony, and only us. Once they were done, they went to the next balcony. They sang You Are My Sunshine to us and it was one of my personal highlights of the trip. I have a video of this but it won't download. I'll keep trying though.

Relaxing after snorkeling.

Kory drinking Kava in a Kava Ceremony. In the US we would call Kava dirty, salty water.

Me, waiting for Kory to wake up and play.

This is my receipt from the 25 Figian cents I had to pay just for toilet paper in a public bathroom!! I was severely distressed over this. Good thing we had 50 cents for both of us...

Kayaking off of one of the islands we visited.
The hermit crab race. The first one out of the circle wins. Ours lost...

Kory watched the race while I watched him.


Kory's new hairdo: the grass skirt of our tour guide.
Riding a boat to one of the smaller islands.

There's more to come, but it's taken so long just to get this together that I thought I would post it anyways. Better some than none.
