Moce Suva...

Last day in Suva. I'm freaking out. Had errands to run with Nichole, and brought the camera along with to try and document some of the everyday things that I'm going to miss so much here.

Sacks of various lentils at the market. I have a newfound appreciation for the diversity (and deliciousness) of lentils.

Part of the seawall, where I go running every day. There's a great breeze coming off the ocean (as long as it's not low tide, which makes it stinky) and I usually go in the afternoon when all of the school buses are flying by blasting their reggae type music, and I never get to work out in a place like that ever again.

My last bus ride. Buses in Boston are going to suck very bad without the tons of crazy stickers and bells and beads decorating the driver's seat. And, worst of all, there won't be bus music.

I'm all packed up to go to Mango Bay tomorrow. But this is finally happening. I managed to fit all of my crap back into my suitcase (and a small gym bag that I bought here), and left a lot of things behind to give to our housekeeper Marama. We found out that she makes 60$F a week, and she works 10 hour days, so we figured we'd give her our old things and some extra cash/change we had laying around. Hopefully she can give herself a week off or something with everything we gave her. She also got a lot of my clothes, shoes, and my soccer ball, pump and cleats to bring back to her village. Tomorrow we head to Mango Bay, a place on the Coral Coast, to spend a few days there before going to Nadi.
