FIRST LANDING


This morning I was treated to a dramatic and moody view of Vuda Point as seen from Bounty Island.
The significance of Vuda Point is this is where, as Fijian legend has it, the first voyagers landed.
Can you imagine being on such a voyage? After weeks at sea these intrepid souls were treated to a view not unlike the one in this photo-less the oil storage tanks of course.
To have discovered this huge island, unoccupied by man must have been a joyous occasion.
I am humbled by their daring and achievements!
