We soon arrived at Christmas island where we spent an hour before taking off again for Fiji, just look at some of the beautiful reefs and islands we flew over. Eventually we arrived in Fiji.

Saturday 26/Sunday 27 May
Today was really a continuation of Friday as we arrived at the airport at 9pm for our flight to Nadi, Fiji only to discover our scheduled flight of 12:05am had been pushed back to 3:30am... so we had to spend half the night sleeping on the floor.. here's us dog tired in the airport.
We eventually got on our way only to learn we had to make an additional stop at Christmas Island... Not the Australian Christmas Island, the Christmas Island directly south of Fiji. We had to go and pick up 1 passanger who was stranded as the runway doesn't have lights and a previous flight had bypassed the island, meaning we had to go and pick him up but we had to wait until it got light, hence the late departure... However the flight was empty so pretty much everyone got a row to themselves. Lucky us so we got to go to another country too... Moses is up to 23 countris now!!

On our arrival we were met by our transfer and quickly taken to our Sheraton Hotel. Where a bus was waiting for us to take us to our boat cruise around some of the islands of Fiji... including the island where Tom Hanks filmed the movie Castaway. We had a really nice afternoon just cruising around the islands and then headed back to our hotel for light refreshments, including fresh coconut juice which was delicious... Then we went to one the many Sheraton restaurants for a delicious Italian meal..
Then Back to our room for sleep... zzzzzzzzz
