Fiji!

Hi everyone!hopefully this blog will not bore you to death. It should document my life while i am living in Sydney.
Making friends is absolutely necessary to enjoy Fiji. The people are so sweet it's strange. Southern hospitality on steroids. Sometimes I wonder if the person I'm talking to is trying to abduct me or if he's just normal for Fiji. Today I woke up and got my luggage(!!!!) then headed across the street to the hostel on the beach I spent the day at yesterday. I had some coffee and met a guy named patrick who is a dive instructor here. Then I went down an laid out and watched my new friend plus others play a really terrible game of rugby. I just finished up a nice cheese tomato and tuna sandwich and vonu beer.now I think I'll walk down the beach then continue sun bathing! 

So I've been laying for a couple hours and my friend simon from the hostel comes over to my chair and gives me a freshly carved coconut. He cuts open the hole in the top sticks a straw in and says that he was just making sure I was not dehydrated. How sweet is that?! It's so odd because it's not exactly like coconut milk but has that consistency . It's clear and....bland?mild may be a better word. Thanks Simon!

Also thanks to dad who got a new toilet with two buttons for the flusher and told me one button was for "little business and the other is for big business." I would have been at a loss with the toilets here.
