Fiji - Pre-Wedding

May 2011

We arrived in Denarau on Monday morning May 2nd at 5.30am and very excited about the upcoming 2 weeks of catching up with family, especially Josh and Blake & Jonno & Jesse as well as friends we haven't seen for a long time. Celebrating Blake & Jonno's wedding was more than exciting and of course spending non-stop time with our grandbaby Jesse - excited hardly begins to explain how we were feeling!

Some pre-wedding highlights -

Shelda, Blake, Toni & I enjoyed lunch and a cocktail in Port Denarau before most of the guests had arrived.

South Sea Island Trip -

The day before the wedding all the guests (nearly 60 of them) came together and enjoyed a wonderful day cruising over to South Sea Island. We were entertained by local dancers and singers, snorkeled, played volleyball, sailed, cruised the coral reef in a submarine, ate fabulous food, met lots of Blake & Jonno's friends and family and had an absolutely amazing day. The setting was so perfect that Jonno's younger brother, Matthew, got down on one knee and proposed to his girlfriend Carlena - so romantic, particularly when he drew a heart in the sand and wrote 'marry me' in it.......
