10 year anniversary trip

As I mentioned before, Warren and I had our 10 year anniversary last Thursday so we went away for the weekend to Toberua Island Resort, a private, beautiful island not too far from Suva. It was AMAZING! It was just so good to get away just the two of us, sans children, friends, daily life. We have been away together since the children were born (only a few times) but it has always been for a business trip or wedding or to visit friends. This time it was all about us with no purpose except relaxing. It was EXACTLY everything I dreamed it would be!!! The location was perfect. Toberua Island is a small island with beautiful scenery, good food, and really nice bures. We ate, read, snorkeled, slept, talked, paddle boarded ....basically just relaxed.

It would not have been possible without our good friends, Wendy and Lach. They watched the kids for us all weekend and even took them with them to Leluevia! We all actually rode out on Lach's boat to the resorts on Saturday morning. They dropped us off on their way to Leleuvia. We had to wake up at 3:30 a.m. to catch high tide for a 4:30 a.m. departure. Yes, it was early but it was so worth it. The trip was stunning. We rode through the ocean to the river system and back to the ocean again. The sunrise was gorgeous. It was a unique experience that I know I'll always remember and I hope the kids do too.

We got dropped off at Toberua just before 7 am, so we had two full days in paradise. Ahh...... Who knew we'd spend our 10 year anniversary in Fiji?!
