On my first outing in Fiji I didn't have my camera and I saw quite a bit. After I got back to the hotel and picked up my camera I got the following shots. The original shots are 18MB each and won't fit on CKA so these are snips. In sequence the first shot is as it was shot from my 500mm lens on my Canon 60D, the follow-on shot is the same shot blown-up for detail.
Edit: And the pix loaded opposite of the sequence I wanted.

I have no idea what was going on and the best chatter I have had from friends is that they don't know of anything that was on for the Fiji area, either.

Fiji seems like a logical place to begin our conquest of the Commonwealth.

Umm. Maybe that's the Fiji Military gearing up to attack the Commonwealth!

Fiji? Not too far from R'lyeh. Maybe the forces are gathering because one of the grouchier neighbours is waking up from his nap.
Oh, you know it's gonna happen one day!

Very cool Bartman. FYI, if you want to see some F-22's in person, the USAF F22 demo team will be at the Planes of Fame Airshow in Chino on May 3. I was going to go, but things didn't work out for me

Tahiti. I mixed it and Fiji up.
It's a recent cultural reference, you might not get.
