Our Fijian Holiday Part 1

From the 7th - 14th March we spent 7 fantastic nights at the Westin Denarau 5 Star Resort and Spa. We had the best time and it was so relaxing, we didn't go there with the intention of doing lots of tours or trips, the whole idea of this holiday was just to sit back, relax and chill out and we certainly achieved that. The first pic is the view looking back towards our resort from the shoreline. And what is a tropical island without palm trees framed against the ocean. We did one tour and one of the places we saw on it was the Garden of the Sleeping Giant which has the most gorgeous collection of orchids that I have ever seen.

After three girls, my gorgeous neices Clohe, Haylee and Shelby my sister Katy and her husband Ian welcomed a handsome litle boy to their family. Logan Ian Eric Elkington was born on the 6th of February 2011 and is such a precious little one. I haven't seen him in real life yet but really do hope to be able to make it up to Kempsey later on this month for a visit. This page was for the February Sketch Challenge at the Boxx and was just perfect for his picture.
