Gday from the Fiji Mission Team

BULA! (that means hello)
Greetings from sunny Fiji! Fiji is great guys, it's so beautiful, and the people here are so warm and friendly, it's truely an amazing country. I don't have much time so I'll make this post as quick as I can.We got here last wednesday night
on thursday we went to suva and visited the children's ward at suva hospital and gave them their gifts and candy canes to all the kids and parents and staff, they LOVED IT!
on friday we did cementing, that was good fun, hard but fun
on saturday we went on a boat down the beautiful navua river and visited a village, where we took part in a kava cerimony and then we had a traditional Fijian lunch. It was SOOOOO good pacific food is the best in the world! After lunch we went further up the river and went swimming at the waterfall and to get there i hadta climb up the rocks for ages but it is SO worth it and we climbed up the 1st waterfall and jumped off it's so cool its like 2.5 stories up and the water is so deep but the next one u cant climb its like 6 stories and vertical so yeah but we swam under it and the water hurts lol
On sunday we chilled out and today, Monday, we started the beach mission. It is really hot today, even the fijians think so, which means it definately IS hot.
Anyway, we get back NEXT monday arvo, ring my mum if u wana come to the airport to see us cos I'm goin 2 melbourne like 2 days after i get home from fiji
Anyway I dont get much internet time and phone costs like 75c per min so cant talk but i luv yas, cyas soon!

A very big thankyou to everyone who has supported us to get us here, and is praying for us. That photo I took is for you, and when we return we'll have many more beautiful photos, and even more beautiful stories to tell.
Vanaka (that means thankyou)
