Day Twelve: July 13th

Island Day Trip – Mana Island

Hey it’s Tori!! So today we headed to port Denarau and we island hopped to another island called Mana island. When we got there we had time to chill and look at the cute shops that were there (some shops were ripcurl, cloud break, and a hot bun kitchen to get some cream buns. Cream buns are a bun and there is like icing/cream in it.) Anyway so when we got on the boat it was a 1hr 30min long ride. So along the way we stopped at other islands to drop people off. When we reached our island we got off and the people were singing a welcoming song and just smiles galore. Anyway we had a tour guide and he showed us around the island. We snorkeled and saw so many cool creatures. As I was snorkeling I was thinking about how good our God is and how His creation of one little tiny island could be so pretty. How He could put so much pretty details into one small little island. God is so good!! After our snorkel trip we had lunch and and swam in the pool. When it was time to leave the island we all got back on the boat and then we all had dinner and went back to the EE center.

Saturday, July 13
Today we took a trip to one of the islands. We started off the morning by going down to the port and shopping around a little before getting on the boat which was about an hour 30 min ride to the island. While we were there, we snorkeled, played volleyball, hung out by the pool and enjoyed lunch there before we left at 5 pm. For dinner, we ate at the port, where we could choose from a few different restaurants. Some people got pizza or ate at the hard rock. Today I also discovered that lemonade in fiji is sprite. We also had time to shop around a little more before heading back to the center after a nice long day.
