Re: About Fiji
You are so lucky! We were supposed to be having a family reunion in Fiji (our island of Gau) around Xmas time but plans seem to have been sidetracked as family members are busy dealing with this recession.
Hopefully, we will be able to plan it when the economy picks up. Eat lots of roti for me!
On a side note, what a great weekend for Fiji rugby! The Warriors became the first Fijian team to win the Pacific Rugby Cup, defeating Upolu Samoa 19-7 at Apia Park in Samoa. The Fiji Sevens Rugby Team won the Edinburgh Sevens in Scotland - defeating South Africa 20-19 in a thrilling final. South Africa won the World Series but Fiji finished second overall - a great result for a team plagued with controversy this season. I thought the Sevens team were goners after they fired their coach, Waisale Serevi (also from Gau!) but they bounced back and did themselves and Fiji proud. My cousin is representing Fiji this month at the Junior World Rugby Championships in Japan. We are all hoping Fiji's success on the rugby field will continue. GO FIJI!
Mrs. Menehune and I are heading to Viti Levu on vacation July 31st!
