Bula! Your Fiji CD ROM is the best travel CD ROM I have ever viewed. I've been to Fiji once before and my next trip will be aboard Naia. The Fiji photos on your website are breathtaking, but I didn't see any of that soft coral when I was there last time. Guess I went with the wrong operation. The CD is a great representation of what Fiji is like; the kava, the lali and the vinakas from everyone. If anyone is looking to plan a trip to the south pacific, they would be nuts to try to do it without this CD. It's fantastic!! Vinaka vaka levu.

The amount of work that must have gone into the production of this project baffles me, but I can't think of many other people who could pull this off. Bonnie, once again, you've done a job lightyears above and beyond your peers. Your Fiji CD ROM is a top notch presentation!

Hafa adai, Bonnie! Just interacted with your Fiji CD-ROM and enjoyed it immensely. We are in the interactive multimedia development business, and have pioneered the development of Destination Guam - A Land and Sea Paradise CD-ROM, in Japanese and English. Your creative work has a quality that surpasses all the CD-ROM's I've seen and would certainly welcome the opportunity to meet with you some day when you are in our part of the Pacific again. I enjoyed your web-site, too, and agree with most of the comments stating that it is one of the best sites for viewing the beauty of the ocean. Thank you for your vision and spirit. It's one that I share and appreciate, and look forward to seeing more of your work and even the possibility of collaborating.

What can you say - We spent 2 glorious weeks in Fiji in March. Took lots of memories home with us, the people, the flowers, the Suva Taxis. And just as the aromas were begining to fade your new CD arrived. Almost packed our bags and headed back. While in Fiji we discovered the photography of Peter Hennings. And it was a pleasure to rediscover his work on the CD. It was great to see the stock photos you have on the CD. No one in Fiji seems to have taken the opportunity to market quality photgraphic prints of this beautiful island. But we saw your CD on sale while shopping. So if you have visited Fiji or are planing to visit - then make sure yiou get this CD. The only thing missing are the aroma's of a Fiji village market. For that you have to go.

What a great CD! Although I had already visited Fiji, I found it to be informative (I learned things I didn't know from my visit) and effectively a souvenir of my visit. It will also become a valued resource when it comes time to plan for the next trip (later in the year, I hope!)

The CD ROM describing Fiji was all we needed to choose Fiji as our vacation place! The video was chock full of beautiful living accomodations, wonderful underwater perspectives and was most informative concerning details that we needed before travel...price, food,climate, clothes, staffing, beach access, dive access, reef access, water sports, travel connections, and culture information. The choice of resorts was especially pleasing! The musical audio was a treat! So, guess what? I got dive certification, advance open water and we went to Qamea Beach Club! Not only was the CDROM accurate in all its representations; we asked, and everybody knew Bonnie and told us more about her like, for example, her proficiency in underwater dive photography! Our accomodations at Qamea were even more exquisite and lush than the CD ROM, the staff was wonderfuly hospitable, yet rarely seen; our meals were nothing short of gourmet--the freshest tropical fruit-hot homemade muffins and bread-fish and seafood galore-"ginger stir fry calamari"-steaks-lobster-youask for it you got it! The staff was highly entertaining and quite available, yet decidedly absent when our need arose! Joe is the proprietor and she has an organized, talented staff--mostly locals who speak many different languages, you must meet Sa-ke! The diving is crystal clear visibility, 100' to 150' range, the coral is abundant and snorkeling is at waters edge! There are no roads, few paths, and a visit to local villages is via launch! A hammock with every bure, no mosquitoes thanks to the tiny gecko, and one of the most relaxing, meditative, fun places you'd ever want to go! In sum, Joe is a cosmopolitan, contemporary conversationalist with the intuition of only the finest hosts! And with respect to the CD ROM, we're so happy to report on the accuracy of the representations; they are honest, trustworthy and based on hands on experience at the islands! Tnank you Bonnie, you're the best!

Dear Bonnie; I ordered the Fiji Cd because I am trying to recreate our Giant Green Iguanas' home environment. They enjoy their native music and have been such great pets that I have dedicated half of my website to them. The CD was so nice it has got us to thinking of traveling. We haven't been anywhere special as yet but the Fiji islands look too enchanting to put aside. Thank you agin and look forward to your new work. Visit http/www.paragonpubs.com/rainforest to see the promo for your site.

To Underwatercolours: We love, love, love your Fiji CD. Been there once and now that we've seen all those beautiful pictures we have got to go back. My wife sits by her computer and plays "Isa Lei" over and over to where she now knows the words. You did a beautiful job in putting this together and I sincerely hope that you do other destinations on CD. Please keep me on your mailing list! Vinaka vaka levu! (that either means Thank You or Toilet, I can't remember which).

My wife and I spent Christmas on Matangi Island in Fiji. Matangi is a 240 acre private island off the coast of Taveuni. We are new divers, so everything was fantastic. Fiji has a well deserved reputation as the soft coral capital of the world - the marine life is extensive. Matangi offers daily, two tank boat dives and unlimited shore diving (shore dives are free). The islands owners and staff are wonderful, the food is great. Even with all 10 private burres full it felt like we had the island all to ourselves. We will go back again. We had already made our reservations at Matangi when I discovered the UWC CD-ROM. The great photos and descriptions helped heighten our anticipation - I do recommend it to anyone planning a trip to the islands. Rick

We loved your cdrom. I've been to Fiji many times and I think you've done a great job of presenting a true picture of the country and people.

Dear Bonnie, Thank you for sending me the Fiji CD. You did such an awesome job, I feel like I've been there. I took it to my dive club meeting (yes me, computer illiterate even gave the demo) and now everyone thinks that I am the FIJI EXPERT! I haven't even been there yet. We'll be making that trip this summer.

I received my copy of the Fiji CD just in time for the Michigan winter depression. My husband and I are planning to go in July and can hardly wait. At least we have the CD to hold us over until then...we'll be watching it over and over again! You did a great job of selling Fiji to two very winter worn divers. Thank you again for sending it on such a short notice. Can you recommend a good Fiji travel agent?
