We headed for the airport in the morning for our flight to Fiji, arriving here about 4:30 p.m.. Again we had a fantastic view from our room.
Day 19 - Fiji
We started our day with a tour of the local marketplace which was loaded with fresh produce. Next we went to a Fijian village where we participated in a welcoming ceremony and were served a great Fijian lunch. Before heading back to the hotel, we went to a K-8 school that Grand Circle helps support. The students put on a show, then individual students escorted us to show off their classroom. Beautiful smiles and large almond eyes abound. Tonight we had a traditional Fijian dinner with entertainment including fire-walking.
Here are peppers and ginger. Other areas were filled with tropical fruits and many other vegetables. |

The girl on the right was my host. She did a traditional dance for our group.
