Lanius Travels

  On Saturday morning Dec 3rd, we arrived at the Fiji airport.  It was only 5:30 am, but they still had a Band to greet us.  We had to wait until 7:00 for the grocery stores to open, the the Malolo Cat office that would be transporting us to the island of Malolo Lei Lei to our resort, the Malolo Lei Lei Lagoon Resort was open Rosa welcomed us with a flower for my hair.       After a trip to the grocery and to see the town of Nadi, we boarded a bus to the Marina to disembark to our island vacation. The Malolo Cat II took us for the hour trip to the island.     First view of our home for the week.   It was everything Bob and I wanted, no phone, no inter-net, and no TV.  As a matter of fact, there wasn’t even a microwave.  (we could have had inter-net at $5 for 30 minutes, but we opted not to even get on)  The computer was strictly to save pictures.  and that we did!!!! The beauty has to be seen, not described...

  We few into Houston on Nov. 22nd to Hobby Airport and then rented a car and headed for Texarkana to see my daughter Dee.   We had a great visit with her and Marie.   Dee  and I went shopping on Wednesday morning  and then pickled up the Turkey Dinner to take back for Marie to heat up. Bob and I went over to their place for Dinner and to celebrate Christmas with them.  It was really nice.  After dinner we were able to take pictures of the decorations they had put up for Christmas. On Thursday, we drove back to my sister’s, Anita, to celebrate Thanksgiving on Friday with my family.  It was great to see everyone except 2 nephews who were working.  We hadn’t spent Thanksgiving with the family for over 7 yrs, since my Mom passed away.  Me, with my sisters, Anita and Gladys and my brother Jim.         The four of us with our spouses to the right.
