Temples, Coconuts, and Bures
The Sleeping Giant Mountains
We’ve been here almost 2 days and have decided that Fiji could very well pass for a territory in Heaven. The air is crisp and balmy, the sky blues as topaz and the ocean warm as bath water. We were fortunate enough to find a resort of “bures.” A Bure is a little hut on stilts, perched about 2 feet off the ground. Ours is on beachfront property with a prime view of the ocean. Hammocks hang between the palm trees here and we’ve made fast friends with the bartender, Cookie.
