Fiji has been absolutely wonderful. Both the nature and the people have been warm and welcoming. Shortly after arrival into Savu Savu Oyster and the Copra Shed marina hosted a welcome party and also we presented them with a gift and had a kava ceremony.

We all ran out to the store to get our sulu’s (traditional skirts) which they wear for formal events and I have now learn that they wear for church after showing up without one. The party was wonderful and the staff was warm and welcoming.




Fiji Diving Paradise

It’s funny how things work out. I originally thought this was going to be a sailing trip where we did some diving but based on our route and itinerary its become equally a diving trip. Each spot we have stopped has emphasized something different. Bonaire was beautiful structure and fish. Fakarava was the shark capital of the world. Rangiroa was diving with dolphins. French Polynesia was up close and personal with Manta rays. Fiji on the other hand is known for soft corals, anemones , and feeling like your diving in a salt water aquarium with unlimited visibility. Please enjoy a short video compilation set to music of the beauty we have observed. We will get back in a week or so with Fiji part 2. Happy Fathers day John, Cullen, and Mike.
