Last days in Hawaii Monday 13th October 2008

Our last few days here in Hawaii Big Island have been idyllic; very relaxed and chilled out. We have done a lot of walking to various local rocky coves and beaches. The turtles decided not to grace us with their presence; however we saw some pretty fishes. Perhaps we’ll see some turtles in Fiji. Tomorrow, Tuesday 14th October, we leave here early, fly to Honolulu and then connect with an Air Pacific flight to Fiji via Christmas Island. When we arrive at Nadi airport in Fiji it will be 6.30 p.m. (approx) onWednesday15th October because we shall cross the date line and lose twenty four hours. At the moment we are 12 hours behind GMT but tomorrow evening we’ll be 12 hours ahead of GMT; weird thought! “Mahalo” Hilo (thank you), we've had a great time!
