20050528 Goodbye Fiji

Left Fiji this morning, stayed the night in Nadi Bay Hotel again before setting off for the airport at 8am, had 2 pleasant flights to get to Christchurch. Now staying in Charlie Bs hostel, a reasonable place, quite old though, and have 2 boring English girls lying across the room talking too much. One of them is actually the 1st real backpacker looking person Ive seen (braided hair, cheap hippy clothing). Spent 3 hours in a web café uploading the images and journal entries to the web for the last month, only got half of them done so Ill head over there tomorrow to finish them off. After nearly dieing of starvation in the café, I found a very nice Chinese to have dinner in, sweet & sour pork and fried rice (gotta love the fried rice). Christchurch looks very like one of those English towns we visited last summer when we went to global gathering and the drunkenness here is on a par with Dublin if not worse: on the walk back to the hostel I saw one guy pick up a man hole cover and just leave the hole open for someone to fall in and walked off with his friends.
Ps. Have now placed headphones in my ears cos of my roommates incessant talking
