Hello From Tokoriki Island
We're here: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:-17.575798,177.088776
It's amazing. The staff all know our name (freaky) and are very friendly and lovely. The resort is amazing. We had Tepenaki last night for dinner, which included a game called Shelly loves. What a fun game that was. Sarah and I got the answer very quickly, it took the other two couples quite a while before they figured out what Shelly does and doesn't like.
We arrived here yesterday by ferry. That's how the poor people arrive. We keep seeing all the rich people arrive by helicopter. And leaving by helicopter. Regardless of how we got here, it's still amazing. There's an infinity pool looking out over the sea, free afternoon tea with amazing cakes and the food is fabulous. It'd want to be for the price. Still, it's not every week you get to travel away with no children.
We've just got back from Snorkelling, I was super lucky and managed to see a Turtle just before we had to come back onshore. It was quite deep and with my bad eyesight and no glasses I could only just make it out, but still it's hard to misunderstand what a turtle shaped thing with four flippers is.
Basically, having the time of our lives. We both miss the kids and like to imagine quite often what they're up to. Mum has been great at sending us messages letting us know how they are and by all accounts they are having a fine time without us. Looking forward to seeing them very soon though.
