Kadavu Airport, Fiji

by chris cunningham

Kadavu airport. Now offically the smallest airport I’ve ever seen. I thought one in Tahiti was small, but this one takes it. It’s a field with a large shed. We said goodbye to George and Waise back at Matava, and Petero, one of the other guides rode with us to the airport to say goodbye. Tony told us it’s the first time he’s ever come to the airport to see a group off. We built a really great friendship with him and it was really nice that he saw us off. The boat dropped us off at the other side of the isthmus and we had to walk over to the airport. It’s pretty much the only road on Kadavu. Lot’s of people were walking about and smiling as we walked by. We’re off to the main island now to the Shangri-La resort for a bit of reverse culture shock. A warm shower too.
