Mother's Day weekend at our favorite Fiji Resort!

Celebrated with the Knights and the Deckers.
 
For our warwick visit this time,  David got just what he wanted! 
The GM upgraded our room, gave him a Warwick cap and a plate of cookies was waiting for us!

We had a great time with the Knights and the Deckers (the remaining Twilight Zone)!

 Great rice catch!  Dinner at the Warwick Japaneese restaurant.

We finally tried the warwick kayaks.....someone got real comfortable!

 Where else but Fiji can you get Hibiscus painted on your toes at the village by the Warwick!

 We served with Elder Painter for 7 months in the office.  Great AP!
