Another cooked breakfast, and fresh pineapple and
pawpaw. Back to NZ today, go by Ferry to the mainland, then fly back to Auckland. It will be late when we get home to Rotorua.

The ferry will take us
back to the mainland, but we will visit the other Islands on our way. A great way to spend 2 hours, the blues
of the water were spectacular.
There are lots of resorts dotted all around the Mamanuca Islands. We stopped at several of them to pick
up and drop off passengers. Mana,
Tadrai, Castaway, Malolo, and Likuliku.

There were several resorts dotted around Malololailai. I just loved the colour of the water.

Denarau was hot, dusty, and busy. It was a relief to get onto the air conditioned bus, and
look out the window at everyday life on the Fijian mainland. Quinn was fascinated by the yachts in the harbour.

| Our ferry |
Our flight back to NZ was delayed, by an hour. We drank smoothies FJ$32
for 3, and waited.
The PA said “apologies
for the delay, the flight was delayed for (a long wait while he searched for
the right word) Personal Reasons!”
Not sure what that meant, but it was a good excuse.
Later on board we discovered the
previous flight to Auckland had a medical emergency on board, so that delayed
the flight.

Tighe watched Godzilla, and Quinn watched TV. I napped. Arrived back in Auckland after sunset. Managed to get home before midnight.
