Beautiful Bau Island


These are the members from the Bau Branch
that invited us to go to Bau Island. The brother's
father was hired by the church to translate the
Book of Mormon and was converted in the
process!


This lady used to be the "first lady" of Fiji.
Her husband was head of Fiji 20 years ago
before he died. This is when England ruled
Fiji. She is showing us a picture of Queen Elizabeth,
Prince Charles, her husband and herself when the
"royals" visited Fiji. They used to live in the
big palace that is here in Suva. She was so kind.
She spent a long time telling us about the history
of the island, showing us pictures and explaining
how Fiji changed from heathenism and cannibalism
to Christianity. It was so interesting.









This black rock wall runs all aroun the island.










The Methodist Church















I obviously don't know how to turn this
picture...sorry!
