Cruise - 2nd day





Enoying cruising, don't think I would like one of those super cruise ships, but life on board Captain Cook is pretty good, especially when the sun is shining and there are islands to see




Our first stop was at a small island owned by a Japanese pearl farmer, unfortunately he didn't have any pearls to sell just now or I might have been tempted. I did walk around the island, it takes about 20 minutes and spied this sea creature, enjoying the sunshine as well




After lunch on board we sailed on to Nana-nui-ra, last time I was there on the other side of the island it was so windy it was hard to stand upright. We landed on the other side and it was sunny and easy to walk up a path to the top of the hill, on one side was our ship postcard perfect and on the other side what looked like fish traps in the circles of rocks that were sitting near the shore






It was back on board after a swim and we cruised further to our night stop between Naigani and Ovalau. We were on Naigani a couple of months ago, Oskar and I were up early and could see a cruise ship out on the horizon, it was deja vu for me, only this time it was me looking back to Naigani. The sunrise wasn't great but from my viewpoint on the boat this is the place the sun first strikes on Ovalau








I wonder how many Fiji islands I have now seen. I haven't been counting but at the end of this cruise there will only be Kadavu and Beqa on my bucket list.
