Off for an Adventure in Fiji and Australia

Good morning, dear ones! After getting home late Monday night from Amsterdam, I am now nearly packed and ready to leave for Fiji and Australia in a few hours. Phew. I’m SO excited to see my dear, dear friends over there, but I’m one tired girl I tell ya.

My first stop will be a long layover in Fiji. I’m hoping for blazing hot sunshine to warm my bones, but since it’s the rainy season…

…I’ll probably get skies like this. I don’t mind a bit though. I’m just so grateful for this trip, for the chance to rest, be warm, and visit with people I love so dearly – even if it’s to the sound of torrential tropical downpours. 🙂

It’s going to be a long two days of travel from Vancouver, Canada to Los Angeles, CA then Nadi, Fiji and finally, Brisbane, Australia. I can’t wait to hug my friends SO tight then settle in for good, long talks and jolly adventures as we go camping, hiking, and exploring in beautiful Queensland.

I’ve got my camera and extra batteries and am all set to chronicle it all for you. 🙂

Now I MUST get packed!!! Love you all dearly and am so glad I get to share this adventure with you. Big hugs!!

Have a WONDERFUL time… will you work when you are there – or did you just win the lottery?

I will be keeping tuned!

Have a safe trip my love and enjoy those blue skies (and/or tropical downpours. But how bad can they be if they have the word tropical in their name?)
