Hey there, I'm still in Fiji!
Our meeting and seminar programmes were finally over. We were then geared for the post-meeting programme that had been arranged for us ahead. This included the tour to Nadi town (pronounced as 'Nandi') which is only about 10 minutes away from our Westin Denarau hotel and is on the way to Suva, where the Reserve Bank of Fiji is situated.
The main attraction of this small town is the handicrafts, cheap flowery shirts and little souvenirs. I bought some fridge magnets for myself and a set of place mats at the famous Jack's shop.
There's nothing much to offer at this sub-urban satellite town. To compare it with our place back home, it's like Tutong town, except that it's located within a resort. Anyway, I enjoyed the tour and the Fijian people we met at the handicraft market were very pleasant and friendly. They were cheerfully singing their folk songs which indicated that they are indeed happy people.
Our next fun organised on the following day was the whole day trip to Mala-Mala Island. That will be my next chapter! So see you soon. Vinaka!
