Wellcome to the Pasific Ocean - FIJI

After all this traveling and hiking in New Zealand, it was time to relax in the islands.




Our choice of islands were - Fiji and the Cook island.
Our first stop was Fiji.
300 islands spreads in the Pacific ocean, all part of Fiji.
We decided to focus on 3 island.
Beachcomber, Nacula island (Oarsman Bay) and Bounty island. All part of the Yasawa island group, about 4 hours boat ride from the main island.




BeachComber Island













Bounty Island

Beachcomber and Bounty were just on the way to Oarsman and back to the main land. Our main destination was Oarsman Bay in Nacula island.

The island is quiet big compare to the first 2. The beach was amazing, I can't really describe the place, especially not in English, the words can't describe the beauty of the place, but I hope the pictures will.













Mostly we laid by the beach, right across our bungalow.











We went to visit a village on this island. It was nice culture experience, especially meeting the children.











Izick did some diving and also drank from the local drink - The Cava, consider to be an afrodisiac.
In total it was an amazing experience, especially because we met so many people over this week.
The Oarsman Bay resort was quite small so we had the chance to meet every new person that arrive to the island.




We specially had good time with Dawn (from New Zealand) , Beth & Mike (From USA) and a very nice lady from LA that we forgot her name (sorry!!!!).





We hope that all of you, where ever you are, having good time.

Last Information about New Zealand

To all of you who kept in touch with our story in the blog probably asking what about our car.
So, we sold it!!!
Yes, after 2 days in the used car market we sold our car for the same price we bought it - 1200$ nz.
It wasn't easy, but we were happy that we achieved it.
Maybe it was thanks to Williams prays. - Thank you again.

Auckland - Our last destination in New Zealand

After traveling for 3 months in New Zealand, we finally arrived to our final destination for our trip in New Zealand.
Our stay there was amazing, no thanks to the Kiwi's, but thanks to our new family back in New Zealand, the David family.





Well, I need to start from the begining for you to understand this.
There is an organization in New Zealand which called HIT - Host Israeli Travelers, which according to its name allow Israeli travelers to stay at local people homes.
The reason that those families invite us to their home, is because they have special connection to the Jewish people.
We had some nice and bad experiences with this "adventure", but the David's family was one of a kind.

Let me introduce the David's family - William, Doris and Liza. They are originally from Singapore so they are completely different from all the local people, which make all the difference for the better.
They welcomed us to their home like we were their children, they spoiled us, preparing delicious meals for all of us (Indian curry - Doris specialty).





We celebrate with them the SHABAT just like we celebrate it back home. It was very spiritual experience for us, especially due to William personality.
In total we had great time over there and we hope to see them again, maybe in the holy land.



William Doris and Liza - Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, We love you very much and miss you.
