I too have been to the Fiji Islands several times on my world Cruises in retirement. Unfortunately I had to behave myself as SHE had her eyes on me all the time , Another true paradise in the south seas.

Fiji, yes some place, lovely people and beautiful lands.
Had it's problems over the years but is stable now.

The Kava, not for the feint hearted.
