Fiji Day 25

Today we went to the Sigatoka Sand Dunes, which was my research place. We went and toured the dunes and the associated rainforest. We got to see some of the pottery that had been excavated there which was cool. They told us that we couldn’t swim because there were a lot of tiger sharks just off shore. They said during high tide you can see them swimming around fins out and occationally leaping as they attack fish from below. So that’s awesome. Then we went over to a school and put on a short kids club, we told the story of Jesus healing the blind man, I was the blind man John was Jesus and Tyler was the Narrator. Then we had them memorize Isaiah 35:5. Then we played some games with them outside until they had to get back to class. Then the group went to the Tanviu fort. There we learned about a particular establishment that is now a historical site. It was pretty neat, not a lot to see, mostly just got a tour telling us what used to be there. The view from the highpoint was awesome though, the rolling hills, farm below, and river cutting through. Unbelievable. After that we went into the town of Sigatoka, I got a snack and drink, and bought a couple souvenirs and a bunch of bananas. Now we are back at the farm we have cleaned up the kitchen and are now packing to leave. New Zealand here I come. We are staying in a hotel for our last night, so that will be nice. I gotta get some sleep though, we have plant some trees at like 5:00am tomorrow morning, so night night.
