After surviving the blizzard, we caught an early morning bus straight up to Auckland and flew out for Fiji. I love islands, but you must develop a Zen like patience very quickly. Everything moves slower. People walk slower, service is slower, buses are generally behind schedule. IT'S GREAT!!!! There is not much to do and nothing to hurry around for. It was exactly what I was looking for after 4 months of not stop moving around. We spent the first week cruising around the Yasawa islands. These islands are off the northwestern side of the main island and are where the great beaches abound(there are few good beaches to be found on the mainland). We soaked up as much sun as possible and found creative wasy to pass the time otherwise...
