Day 31 Suva, Viti Levu, Fiji

Today turned out pretty good. I went out this morning around 0630 for our sail into the Suva Harbor only to find out I was just a little too early. Anyway, the sail in was very nice with a lot of nice photos. I was one of the first ones off the ship, along with Mike & Janet and we headed out to check out the markets…. Today was a very good day for people shots. The people really enjoyed having their photos taken and some were pretty good. From the market we headed toward the Thurston Gardens & Fiji National Museum walking along the coast. It was a great day to hike around the city. The Thurston Gardens were nice but in need of some good maintenance and the museum was very nice & informative. We checked out the President’s residence & guard at the gate as we left the gardens. Very nice… As we walked along heading fro the Parliament Buildings we hooked a taxi to take us for a short (1 ½ hour) tour of the Parliament & heading up into the hills to get some shots overlooking Suva. After our tour we headed back to Suva. I got back to the ship and ran into Wil & Ron up by the pool. They too had a marvelous day.. They went to a village and by the looks of things I think they made him Chief. All in all it was a very nice day. Tomorrow, a day at sea to rest up for our next port, Vanuatu.
