WRAPPING UP FIJI IN PICTURES, SOME OF THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS 1991
We spent an idyllic time in Fiji. Our days were filled with sun, beach, shopping and a wee bit of touring. Once again we had found a perfect place to spend our time away from work. As always Deysi had everything planned to the T. The girls were at the right age to enjoy their vacations and to spend time with mom and dad. By now we were well into our vacation time, but yet had 2 more weeks to spend in Hawaii. I am going to wrap up our stop in Fiji with a photo slideshow and try to show some of the scenes that were presented to us each day. Enjoy.
