Story

We then went to the Fiji Cultural Village. It was fairly similar to the other cultural experience that we did except that this one was a little bit more touristy. They had a bunch of huts set up in a big loop and people demonstrating different skills in each hut. We got a ton of mosquito bites and found at the end that they had bug spray for us but we didn't know about it. I got selected to be the chief for the kava ceremony. We had lunch, then instead of having them drop us off back at our hotel, we had them drop us off at the Indian temple.
