The very first time I have ventured on a vacation by myself....and what a good time I had!
But, ofcourse, no trip with Renee can start without drama.....so.....I was late heading to the airport for reasons I won't go into now....but, needless to say, when I got there, they said "GOGOGO, RUNRUNRUN!" and run I did to get to the gate....when I got to security, the deligent guard asked me "any gels or liquids??" now, I have gotten used to traveling within Australia, where this 1-2-3 put your shampoo in a plastic baggy" nonesense is not required. since I wasn't traveling back to the US, I figured this was necessary. So, I did not bother with that. So, I replied "no".....I mean, after all, it was just contact solution, some liquid foundation and so forth. Well, he pulls my bag out of the queue...and takes out: contact solution, makeup, tooth paste, mouth wash, and so forth and so on....he just looks at me.....luckily, he was a real sweetie, and he took pitty on me, put the stuff in the special little baggy and ran it through security, and sent me on my way. where I promptly got stopped and had my carry on bag bomb tested and I got patted down! wow! but, I still made my flight! and do you know, when I got to my dogedy little hotel room in Fiji, I was unpacking my carry on, and I had a knife with a 6" blade on it, in MY CARRY ON! I was using my beach bag as my carryon, and I always take my fishing gear with me when I go to the beach, and somehow, I accidently left my sharp, 6" blade in my carry on!!!! what a way to start a vacation, ah????
Fiji is just fantastic! Here are some pics!
