Spent the early morning on the boat and went snorkeling not long after breakfast. Didn't see anything spectacular but lots of pretty coral and small fish.

After snorkeling I had a short swim around the boat. The water was just too refreshing to get out of! But I was turning into a prune so I got out and hoped into the beautiful shower (nice logic I know). Before lunch we watched Fiji play in the Rugby 7's tournament. They made it to the finals against England. Since the final was on at 2:30, I ate lunch and then had another nap in the rocking air conditioned dorm. I woke up and went to watch Fiji play in the finals. Unfortunately they got beat quite badly by England.

The views from the beach at Kuata were beautiful!

Not long after we caught the Yasawa Flier once again to Kuata Island Natural Resort. The trip was only an hour, so once again it wasn't bad. I met up with the Michelles and Munni again. Unfortunately it was time to say goodbye to Munni. :-(

I was quite nervous going to Kuata because I had heard some bad reports. The food had been terrible and the accommodation was horrible and many other bad things. The manager of our tour company was supposed to have gone to Kuata the day before we arrived there. Charles and I were still going to Kuata for the 2 nights but the Michelles had changed and were only staying for one night. Olivia and Sinead would also be there the next day. Charles was actually my bunkmate while we were there.

We arrived about 4pm and had some pre-dinner drinks and chatted to 2 different girls from Canada and 2 guys from Glasgow. The Canadian girls had some really awesome pics from Hawaii, so now I can't wait to go there! haha!

The views from the beach at Kuata were beautiful! And everything on the island looked really nice. Dinner was a yummy chicken pasta so it was obvious that the manager had done some work and there were changes going on at Kuata.

We all stayed up a bit late having a nice chat and listening to music but once back at the dorm it was hard to sleep. The dorms weren't really crowded but it was just very hot and stuffy. No more a/c.
