Our friends in Fiji

Isabella and Everett have made many friends on Denarau.  Paulini is at the restaurant every morning but Mondays- her day off.  The Fijian work week is six days per week.  We invited Paulini to spend her day off with us- she swam and played with kids all day! I don't know who had more fun- Paulini, the kids... or me!?!? 

Isabella has done a lot of artwork in Fiji.  Her latest media of choice is watercolor.  Every piece that she has produced, she has signed and given as gifts to the Fijian people that she has met here.

 Venezaria and Mariama (please forgive my spelling) with Isabella.  Isabella gave Venezaria a picture, and she took it home and hung it up, and told her own daughter about Isabella.  We got to meet Mariama who is 7 years old and is in Class 2.  We went to see Venezaria play in the Golden Oldies National Netball Tournament at Denerau Golf and Racquet Club.  More of the team members are pictured below with Everett.

We did not last long at the tournament... it was VERY hot!  We had to go in to the pro shop to cool down!
