Last full day/night in Fiji for YOUgene. ๐ข
Apparently there was a party at the Lily Pond next door. Managed to get a quick pic of one of the guests before it hopped off after the others. ๐ธ
YOUgene has been enjoying the beach, pool and grounds of Sofitel Fiji Resort and Spa. He has also enjoyed his complimentary nightly turndown service with a chocolate on each pillow and a cup of peppermint tea. Unfortunately he does not get this service back at home!
A big day for YOUgene yesterday, escorting a group to Fiji. He managed to get this snap of the Sunset before heading off to an outdoor Buffet Dinner. No pics of the dinner - he was too busy eating!
YOUgene has dusted off his passport and is off for a tropical getaway! Any guesses where he's off to?
