Octopus Resort days 2 & 3




Well we are all well enscounsed in island life, bikinis, suntan lotion and lots of food!!

We cant put photos on here as they have strict rules re using USB sticks, so will need to add these when we get back to Nadi.

We all laxed around yesterday, lay in the sun and clouds- lovely and warm though. We took the girls out for a snorkel-

Amber has had a few firsts- 1st international flight, first snorkel. She did admirably and didnt suck when she should have been blowing (with the snorkel!!)

We are all having lots of fun and today we took them all out for a boat trip round to the local school, where the island kids all board during the week. We got to visit their classrooms, talk to them and we all took some gifts for them as well which they will enjoy. Their standard of living is a bit of a shock for the girls, the beds in the dorms are made out of bits of wood, some dont have mattresses and there are holes (big) in the floor. Good for our lot to see so they appreciate how they live at home.

We then got to snorkel out in the bay and the girls all sat out on the roof of the boat which was cool.

Amber and Sam are booked for massages tomorrow which they are keen on and are working hard on their tans!!

Thats about it for now- its beer-o-clock!
