Fiji Palms, Suva

The Fiji Palms Resort where I'm staying is beautiful.  After an opening meeting to get info on the area and what to do, I got to meet the other guests at the resort.  This made the experience better as a little community developed between us, although I came by myself and stayed in my own apartment.  There was a group of other backpackers, several married couples, a family, etc.

One day, I went to Suva (capital of Fiji) to look around a little.  It had a look more like a village than a city.  The buses in this country for the most part have no windows.  Fijian attire is colorful with some designs.  People where sulus on the bottom, which kind of look like skirts.  The city kind of smelled.  I like the feel of Fiji though.  It reminds me of Uruguay and Ghana while I was there.  It's the third world, nature, simple-life kind of feel.
