FIJI ADDENDUM

Final day in Fiji... The timing is probably good as my skin is starting to get quite crispy. (I guess "lobster-y" would be more accurate, but I do feel a bit like a bucket of the Colonel's original recipe.) We're in Nadi town today doing souvenir shopping... Anybody need a tribal mask? We also took a side trip out to see a famous orchid garden named "Garden of the Sleeping Giant", named for the neighboring mountain which looks somewhat like a very large sleeping person. The garden was started by Raymond Burr of all people. (Yes, that's Perry Mason.) The flowers were very pretty and like just about everywhere we go, admission included tropical fruit juice. This is going to be a very long day - We have an insane itinerary of a Wednesday morning 4AM flight and will be on to Hong Kong next.

Sounds like you're having a great time :-) I hope you can find some aloe among the gardens. Are you planning to post any pictures?
