Fiji experience....
Finally made some time to share with you RS heads my Fiji experience.

We went out in January to the north western part of Fiji. Went to several islands on a mini cruise and then stayed longer on a little remote island for a week. Our neighboring island was Cast Away (Tom Hanks movie)....it was true paradise.

The trip was fantastic and the added bonus when I got home....found out the whole trip was tax deductible. I still have a big chunk of it sitting on my credit card but I am happy I was able to experience Fiji.

Here are some pics....enjoy.=)

It was a jelly fish and that sucker was coming straight at me. It was the most majestic creature I have ever seen.

The camera is a secret and I can't give it up. You guys will have to wait till I upgrade to a new one.
