We didn't leave from the airport in Nandi until 10pm and we had arranged for the VT mini to pick us up at 4 or 4:30 from Rae's house so we had the whole day to kill. We walked tword town taking pictures and ran into Ravi, Rae's co-worker going to church. We chatted a bit and then caught an open truck with benched and an awning into town for $.50 each.
In town we walked down to 'The Pizza Pallace' I'll let the pictures and videos speak for that!
We caught a cab back and packed. Our VT mini didn't arrive untill just before five but we still made it to the airport by 7:30. There were a huge number of Fijian military and families at the airport, possibly en-route to Iraq, though I'm not sure where that info came from.
We bought last ditch suvenears, nasty prepackaged shot mixers and duty free Bounty! Our plane back was larger than going but more crowded. Meadow and I watched Final Fantasy: Spirits Within on the PSP and then we all tried to sleep. We cleared customs in LA with no problem despite the large quantities of legally questionable Kava. Then we tried to figure out what to do with the alcohol that we had bought in the Fiji airport but couldn't get back onto a plane because it was in lager than 3 ox bottles... how does an international airport not have a good way to deal with this?!? We tried to pack it in one of my bags but a beer bottle broke even before we got it all lacked so we left it with my dad hoping that he could mail it to us.
My dad met us at the airport and took us out to Tequilla Jacks for dinner then to the beach. We walked down and stuck our feet in but the pacific off of CA in April is still cold. We went to the hat shop and Todd tried on the Capitan Morgan hat... he may be the only person alive that can wear a hat like that and not look ridiculous. Then back to the LAX for an uneventfully flight into Boston. Then straight back to work without even going home!
