The New Zealand boys travelled to the northern side of the island of Viti Levu. and then to Lautoka, and afterwards trekked through Sigatoka and Navua to Suva. All around, they received wonder ful hospitality from local Boy Scouts, especially from members of the Fijian troops. Latterly they spent a couple of days on the island of Nukulau, one of the Government quarantine stations, and a favourite week-end resort.
