Unwinding

Mike needs a few days to unwind.

 

Chris finds it easier

 

After birding Mike crossed the street and brought two coconuts from the fruit stand and had them cut them open.  After drinking some of the coconut water, we added rum, mango juice, lime juice, passion fruit and spent a few hours watching the tide come in.

 

Birding in Taveuni

Taveuni

We decided upon Taveuni because of the birds. The airport is also easier to navigate than LAX.

Birding the parking lot at Nadi international airport

We have a four hour wait to get the flight to Taveuni which is supposed to be the best island for birding in Fiji. The parking lot and Nandi airport isn't bad.

Making a list and checking it twice

Mike and Chris both made lists. They just did it differently.
