Beauty Is In The Eye

The Sigatoka Valley

A rural scene, with a wide river meandering through green fields, is always an attractive picture, and this one is worth halting a few moments for on the 30 mile drive along the Sigatoka Valley. Yet when you are young, and you happen also to be in the valley at the height of the watermelon season, there is some scenery that is even more inspiring, and not even the legs of an unromantic pair of pants fluttering from a nearby clothesline will detract from the sheer beauty of the place. These watermelons sell to passers-by for about 3/each.
