Today is my last full day in Fiji. Tomorrow morning we're flying out to Sydney and a new life. And I'm already feeling homesick! Damn, I know I'll miss the Fijian food and lifestyle. By Fijian food, I don't just mean the lovo, dalo, lolo food, etc, but also the Indian curries and quick Chinese takeaways like Joji's and Yang's. Plus lobster and fish, which I prefer here in Fiji... barramundi just doesn't taste as good as homecooked steamed rock cod!
We're still finishing up our packing, and finding that we still need to do a million and one things before we leave. We've sent most of our items ahead by Air Pac freight, but Har and I are pretty sure the luggage we're taking onboard is gonna be overweight too :'( Plus we have to take an Air Fiji flight from Nausori to Nadi and they have lower weight limits than Air Pac's local flight company (15kg vs 20kg).
One thing I have to get used to in Oz is the cold... I'm a fan of tropical weather but my wife prefers the cold... as she says, "It's easy to put on more clothes for cold weather but you remove all your clothes for hot weather!" Or something like that. The worst is when you have a nice hot shower and you have to jump out and towel yourself quickly in the cold air... brrr! Having a heater bulb helps but not enough for me!
Anyways, I'll have to see if I can get a letter from LTA mentioning my driving experience... this is for when I get my driving license in Oz, I won't need another few years driving with "P" again.
