Fiji

On arrival at Nadi we discovered that we had been a little too laid back about arranging our accommodation. You can make internet bookings for many places here, but it seems that what then happens is that somebody prints off your request during office hours (Mon-Fri!) and makes the arrangements by phone.

This was our first proper encounter with ‘Island Time’, since in Tahiti it seemed to involve taxis and buses arriving to collect you early rather than late.

None of this was really a problem though as the travel offices at the airport are open 24 hours a day and they will happily phone around and find you a hotel (see photo). So without too much delay we were on our way to our accommodation (apologies to the bus load of backpackers who were kept waiting on the minibus whilst we finalised our booking!).
