A Floral Wonderland

Just a short drive from bulavista are the Floral Tropical Gardens.   This has to be one of the best kept secrets on the whole island.  It is spectacular, wonderful, jaw-droppingly beautiful.  Home to over 400 species of palms from all over the world as well as countless cacti, orchids and some of the most spectacular trees we've ever seen, the Gardens were developed by a British horticulturist in the 1990's.  


It is another blisteringly hot, wickedly humid day, but inside the Gardens it's remarkably cool (well, almost!).


The dense foliage . . .


The spectacular view once we climb to the Garden vista . . .




What a perfect way to end our time in Fiji . . .


And after nearly three weeks, we're even better friends than when we started . . . thank you Deb and Paul for enriching our lives and a special thanks to Paul for the 'three fives' almost a year ago in Udaipur, Rajasthan.

We'll see you in Melbourne in February and Tucson in Spring,  2016!!
