    Finding Dory

    May 9, 2018, South Pacific Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C

    Today we lazily woke up and strolled to breakfast - it is a mix of buffet and menu, you pick an item from the menu and help yourself to a continental style breakfast - everything was really good quality. At 11, we watched a coconut being knocked from a tree, then husked, cracked and cut for eating. We also got to try it deep fried with salt (pretty good in case you were wondering!). We went shark hunting in the little resort buggie with Seko but didn’t find anything. We then played some chess and got ready for our fishing adventure. Now, fishing wasn’t my idea but you only go on your honeymoon once and it was handreel fishing so I thought it wouldnt be too bad. We hopped on the boat with one other couple and drove out just past the island. It was super rocky and we both felt sick but we struggled through. I caught two fish! A trigger fish about 30cm long and super fat and a little fish, about 20cm long. I was pretty stoked considering I’ve never caught a fish before! We then did some reading and went for a sunset stroll along the beach before dinner where B showcased his skipping rock talent, some rocks skipping 5 times! Dinner was mushroom and bacon risotto for us both, the best rack of lamb we have ever had for B, mustard chicken for me. Dessert was pineapple pudding for B and Eton Mess for me. We then relaxed near the pool with the music guys for an hour or so before the wind picked up and we were freezing!Read more
