September 2008: South Pacific
Suva, Viti Levu, Fiji pt 3 (S 18.07.297 E 178.25.405)
The walls of some yacht clubs are decorated with memorabilia specific to that club and this one did not disappoint. There were letters of approval from the British government allowing the use of the word Royal in Royal Suva Yacht Club as well as many letters of correspondence for this. Artifacts and pictures from the old days I find interesting.
I’m not sure of the order of who was on the block first, but as you leave the RSYC and turn right you pass the Suva Prison on the left and then the Fiji Beer brewery magically appears. I just happened by one day and some of the guys were sitting out front on break so we talked. They asked the standard ‘where are you from?’, And I always come back with, ‘where are you from?’. The employee bar is closed so they can’t drink at work anymore. Fiji Premium came out a few months ago and has more alcohol in it. We talked about the important stuff.
