It’s so hot in here! Last week it was too much raining. This week hella HOT.
You can never tell Fiji weather. It changes a lot, even in a day time. One minute it’s raining and the next it’s sunny like not a single drop of rain before.
It’s a tiny island and the capital city, Suva, is even tinier. My place to my work is only 10 min drive and within that short distance, there are different weathers. Sometime it’s raining back home and so hot at my office. Can you believe that!
Today it’s so hot at my office and at home too. Too humid last night and I can’t sleep well. No wind at all and the sky becomes a big slice of orange. When I get home this evening, it’s drizzling in the hot orange sky. Then, there form a gloomy rainbow due to the mixture of water particles and the ugly sunray. Rainbows are supposed to be beautiful but this one looks awful. My sis took a picture of it and you can see how gloomy the rainbow looks in that ugly reddish-orange sky. I hate the hot, humid, gloomy weather.
How’s the weather like in your part of the world?

Monday being a public holiday, this is was a long weekend for us in Fiji. It’s Fiji’s 35th independence day and some special events such as various sports competitions, cultural shows, and many other private parties or picnics have been organized to celebrate this year Fiji day.
It was a beautiful, sunny and perfect weekend for outdoor activities. Every year we take part in 3 days long badminton competition and we hardly get to see other activities around town. This year due to some mishaps (being lazy, sick, no practice, just lazy), we did not take part in our usual Fiji day badminton competition. So we thought of roaming around in town to see some parade at the park and cycling. As usual we got there late so we missed the starting of the cycling and couldn’t take photos of them. We also missed the gun and a cannon shooting just by 10 min, and the event was pretty much over. Anyway got some Fiji police photos and some piglets :p Someone’s lunch I guess. Poor, poor piglets!

And the “Picture of the day” goes to…

No, no seriously
…it’s this one.

More Fiji Day photos can be seen here.

One of my favorite web gurus, “Jeffery Veen“, landed on Fiji ground and I didn’t know of that? What a shame.
As the plane descended, I looked out at the black sky, and then saw a few tiny lights below. We landed, taxied to a gate, and I watched as a not-very-exotic looking ground crew fix the problem. We all lined up, used the newly functional restrooms, and off we flew back into the night.
I guess his flight landed in Nadi International Airport, which is one of the only two airports in Fiji. It’s 4 hrs drive from my place. I would have go meet him if he stayed longer.
It’s quite a funny reason to pay a visit like that haha.
Still he can now say he has been to Fiji.
