Fiji Pictures: Manta Ray

I am still without a digital camera, so I am happy that I have so many pictures to post. This is your weekly pictures update. All of these photos are from Manta Ray. I think that for the next couple of weeks you will be getting Fiji pictures as your weekly update. Cross your fingers than the insurance company comes through soon!
This is Amy and I on the balcony of the main area right at sunset. It was perfectly lovely, watching the sun go down, drinking a glass of wine (Happy Hour, you know), and just talking with the people we met there.

This is what we could see from where we were standing in the above picture. You can see how the main building is raised up on the island since you are looking down into the bay. This is where we ate all of our meals and hung out in the evening.

Simply gorgeous. The sunsets in Fiji were just amazing. I love seeing the sun rise and set over the ocean, and the palm trees make it that much better.

This is Amy getting artistic and creative with her camera. I think it turned out very well!

Manta Ray has two beaches. There is the east beach and the west beach (Manta Ray Island is long and thin, running north and south, with the thin part being the east-west direction, so you can walk between the beaches in a matter of minutes). Meredith and I went exploring and climbing over the rocks before realizing that the tide was going to trap us, so we turned around and went back.

My current desktop background. I have no idea at what time of the day this was taken, I don't know who took it (although, it was either me or Meredith, I think, as I took it off her camera), and I don't even know for sure that it was on Manta Ray. It was in the folder from the day we were on Manta Ray, but it could have been before we left Coral View for Manta Ray. Either way, it is gorgeous. The water is especially distinct; you can see the individual swells and the texture of the surface of the water.

So, there is your weekly photo update. I am going to post again tonight, so look for that soon.
