Fun in Fiji

Hey, everyone! Sorry it's been such a long time since our last post but it's been the busiest couple of weeks of our life. If you don't know - we are home in Canada! We're excited to be back but we sure do miss the Australian sun and our pals back there "down under". On our travels back to Canada, me and Ryan decided to spend a few days in Fiji to celebrate our one year anniversary (a little early). It was so gorgeous and we had a wonderful time!

This picture was taken on a sail ship that took us from Nadi, Fiji to another island. We had morning tea and live entertainment as 6 Fijian men serenaded us to "Oh, My Darling" for an hour!

This is the island that the boat dropped us off at. We did some snorkeling in the morning in that crystal clear water and sun-tanned a little, too!

The sign says it all! The island isn't very large, though - me and Ryan walked around the entire thing in less than 15 minutes!

Those sun huts you see here were first come, first serve - so ours is on the furthest right. We had to run to get one because people were going nuts!

On Mystery Island, there was one spot that you were not supposed to go because it was the home of turtles! Pretty neat!

Here's us after actually being in the sun for a while - it's a tan for us!

I met a little friend in the lobby of our resort.

The sunsets in Fiji are indescribable - they are absolutely breathtaking. Pictures can't do them justice really.

Here's my handsome husband taking a little nap. Isn't he so cute?

It was great for us to have our first wedding anniversary celebrated there. It was unforgettable and we hope to visit it again some day. The weather was perfect (although the locals were wearing snow pants and tuques and it was 30 degrees celsius!)

Hope you all have a wonderful week! We love you all and to all our Aussie friends (and family) - we miss you a whole big bunch! G'day, mates!

love,
amy t.

I see no comments yet so I guess I'm first!!!!!!!! It may help that your whole family is there with you. Just so I can get the first post, I'll put this up and then look at your post

On the surface, it looks good. Maybe I should have come with you. Would have loved it.

Ryan & Amy,
I'm hoping you've set your blog so you have to moderate comments before they show up on your blog. Just in case though, I'm not going to say much - just that Larry's birthday is coming up and I'd like your help with something. Can I get your email address so we can discuss it? My email is bettyr@cssm.ca.
