We've spent some days in Suva, eating, shopping, showering and the like, which isn't that interesting to the rest of the world, but quite fantastic after six weeks at sea. I've been complimented very much on my local jembba dress.
Now we're at Ovalau, Levuka Town, which is the old capital. It's gorgeus, with superbly friendly people and not very visited due to a lack of white sandy beaches. Definitely still worth going here anyway.
Tomorrow morning we're heading to Canggalai, which is a tiny island with a few bure on the beach, run by the methodist church. Supposedly that's were the white beaches are, minus the crowd of backpackers/horrible aussies. There's not much to do but snorkeling, playing about on the beach and hang out with the locals.
Bonus info: kava tastes like soapy mud water. We had some with the local charity club at Levuka Club, which is the oldest membership club in the South Sea Islands.
