During the return we decided instead of sitting 12 hours in Brisbane at the airport, we went into the city;) Unfortunately the weather was not good this time, but it was still warm and much to see.
Before I go to the beautiful city of Australia, I will tell you the story of the departure from Vava'u.
When we were sitting at a very small airport and waiting for the plane, we joked that the plane would be from the 50's or 60's;) HAHA. When the plane arrived it turned out that instead of flying away on time, we watched as the captain and others were running talking through the cells, slightly annoyed. We gave it a bit and they said nothing to us.
In the end, we were allowed to board without much explanation. Margaret could not stand it and asked if everything was ok. She was told that there was nothing to worry about, the captain would explain everything on the plane.
The captain apologized for such a long wait and we learned that there was no fuel on Vava'u to refill. The captain made the decision to land on the main island of Fiji, because he got permission, but he would be flying at slower speeds to fly safely. So we landed on Suva to refuel. The captain talked to each of us immediately after landing on Savu, apologizing for the delay. He was clearly overwhelmed by the whole situation, he wanted us to feel relaxed and safe. I wish there were more such pilots. Bravo
and then within 20 minutes we found ourselves on Nadi.
we spent the night on Nadi and then Fiji airlines got to Australia (Brisbane).
Brisbane delighted us although we were so short time will show you a few places we visited. First, we went to the botanical garden. A beautifully organized place with charming paths. Unfortunately, we were during the winter, so the number of flowers was limited, but I managed to take some pictures and take a walk. A few posts are being prepared;) I invite you to Brisbane :)
No fuel!! Glad you had a good pilot! Love the photos!

Very interesting! what will happen when fuel cost rises at a much higher rate next year! Small and far away places would not be able to afford fuel costs!
Glad you arrived safely!
Enjoy the day!
