SS is too nice to leave!

I'M going to be online tommrrow 9am my time so I'm hoping SOMEONE will be online and ready to skype. Email me if your me friend and want to know my skype name and stuff. I just had a WONDERFUL skype session with DURKA my roomie and it waas SOOOO nice seeing him!!! yey!

Here's a little piece of email that I thought would be a nice little update:
In response to the following questions my aunt asked me via email:

is there great fish? What’s the local liquor like? What about the fruits?? Have you had new exotic fruits?

yes, fish is amazing. Eating more now than ever in my THe locals have been pouring fish on our heads. Fish in lolo is my favorite (lolo is coconut milk, its absoulatly AMAZING), I've caught a snapper and grouper and we've eaten Walu and sure tons of other fish i don't even know the name of. We even had the village of Daliconi give us aa HUUUUGE lobster...photos can be seen at the travel blog http://ladycroft.travellerspoint.com I haven't had any local liquor, its expensive here, so is wine because its all imported. But the beer (Fiji Bitter) is cheap, and after one gets used to it, fairly delicious... I'm trying to wrap up this email (eerrr travel blog-its already 5:10!), because Happy Hour in in 45 minutes (err, 15 minutes ago) at the copra shed, where Beer is only $2.50 (thats about US 1.75!) Can't beat that!

Fruit is just falling off the trees here. I eat local Papaya, Pineapple, and bananas every morning (with my Wheet-bix!) I tried a star fruit (or is it lechie?) anyways its this green fruit with all these little spines and you can cut it and squeeze it and drink its sour citrusy juice (yum!) I had a local lad named Yandua in MBavutu scale a tall palm tree in 2.3 seconds and throw down some coconuts, then cracked them open with his machete so we could drink after a long walk. It was aqua vite, just delicious and amazing.

Tomorrow, after a successful skype i hope (though no one's gotten back to me) I'm going to have lunch then catch a bus to Mumu's resort about 17 km E of SavuSavu. I'll spend Thurs night there and be back here on Friday in time for perhaps another successful skype in the afternoon and then check out the Friday-night scene here in town. Then I'm going to catch the ferry to Taveuni Saturday morning and hang out there for 5 days or so.

Funny enough, I modeled today for Windward Apparel, owned by the lovely Sean and Sharon from Canada, who now live in Savusavu. They're friends with Cathy and Peter and asked me to pose for a resort who wants to have their logo's put on teeshirts and applied to the walls of their boutique shop! FUN! SO naturally being the attention whore I am, I readily agreed to help em out, and got a nice teeshirt out of it!! In the meantime I was introduced to their helper Gama, whose very kindly helped to me to make sure I catch the correct bus tomorrow and also the ferry on Saturday.

THe people here are awesome and everyone wants to help. A girl can't even be alone if she wants to. Everyone's always offering to take me here or take me there, or for me to come visit them and if i need a place to stay etc etc....Of course I wouldn't go home with anyone or anything, but i'm sure most offers are truly out of the abundant generosity that lies in the heart of nearly every Fijian I've met.

Gotta go, the internet place is closing! BYE!
