What's this thing called again? 

Artsy pic of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. 

You decide....did Jen lose a lot of weigh or is that a really fat tree? 

View of Sydney from the ferry. Sydney is definitely a beautiful place mate. Go on now, visit it for yourself. 

Bondi beach. I didn't see Britney Spears, but I did see a few guys in speedo's. 

I think the picture say's it all. 

Sydney's got bats! Batty, batty, batty. These massive fruit bats hung from the trees in the Botanical garden. There were thousands and thousands of them.

Damn, we are cute.... umm Jen, next time can you remove the empty can of Fiji Gold from the foreground. 

Bula, welcome to Fiji! Jen's pose for the Fiji poster girl. 

Beachcomber Island. Yeah, baby, let's do some body shots! 

This freaky thing is a Crown of Thorns starfish. Apparently the spikes have venom in them... but I didn't get close enough to test that theory. 

Underwater landscape around Botaira. 

View of Botaria from hill. 

Looks like being inside an aquarium. Snorkling from boat by outer reefl. 

The three J's bustin' out a mean tune on Botaira. 

Boy performing during the Meke. A Meke is similar to a Hawaiian Luau, as there is singing and dancing. The real difference is that their are actual Fijian villagers who practice and perform versus someone on the Marriott payroll in Waikiki. 

The welcoming committee on Botaira. Everytime a visitor arrived on Botaira this crew, Joe, Joe and Jonah (yes, that was actually their names) greeted everyone with a song or two. Also, they played during every meal... except breakfast due to the overdose of Kava from the night before. 

Royal Angelfish. Picture taken off Botaria. 

Massive Brain Coral seen swimming off Botaria. This thing had to be at least 10-12 feet across. 

This was the view from the door of our Bure on Botaria. It totally sucked, because at low tide, I had to walk 50 feet to the ocean instead of 40 feet at high tide.
 

Who is that greeting me at my bure? Oh it's Jen, fresh out of the shower. This was our Bure (which is I think Fijian for 'hut') where we stayed on Botaria. 

Botaria resort on Naviti Island in the Yasawa island group. (not to be confused with Navini Island in the Mamanuca island group.) 

Reef Shark. These sharks would swim just off shore (sometimes only one or two feet from the shoreline) during the mornings and evenings around Navini. 

Another view of Navini Island. This was our home for a short four days. Although we hope to go back one day.

Beautiful sunset seen from boat on the way to Navini.
