• FIJI

    August 3 in New Zealand 🌬 15 °C

    Kate and Brendon very generously invited David and me along with Robyn and Jeff to share their holiday in Fiji with them.
    WOW WOW WOW!
    We'd not been before and to say we were bowled over would be an understatement.
    We shared an apartment at Club Wyndham on Denarau Island and it was great. Spacious enough for us all with an outside patio and good sized living area, two bedrooms and a Murphy bed in the lounge which K and B insisted was theirs leaving the bedrooms for the 'oldies'.
    The surroundings were gorgeous..... gardens perfectly kept, babbling creeks and the multiple pool areas right beside the sea along with several restaurants made for a perfect environment to chill on loungers after cooling off in the pool.
    I attended aquarobics each morning and we three girls tie dyed a sarong each. Kate and I made a pottery bowl each however I suspect they'll be put in the back of the cupboard for eternity unless Kate managed to break them on the way home! 🤣
    We spent a day on MalaMala Island, a tropical paradise that dreams are made of. David and B went snorkeling, we walked around the island, enjoyed the food, the drinks and the stunning beach and views. The cherry on top was the delayed trip home which meant we witnessed a fabulous sunset from the boat.
    While all this was absolutely fabulous the overriding impression for David and me was the endless joy of every single employee at Club Wyndham. Wide smiles, joyful Bulas and a gentle touch along with excellent service. Whoever is responsible for the work culture has achieved an incredible result. The people have left a lasting impression. Absolutely wonderful!
    I can hand on heart say it was a perfect week but especially being with our girl, who we'd not seen for absolutely ages. B we loved seeing you too along with Rob and Jeff.
    We're privileged to have had this opportunity. Thanks K and B. You're stars!
