The Experience

I didn’t expect to feel nervous about landing in Fiji — but there’s something about new airports that always gets me. The arrivals hall at Nadi was warm and busy, all these voices bouncing off the tiled floors, and then I spotted our name on a little sign. The man holding it grinned like we were old friends. “Bula!” he said, which I’d read means hello, but it felt bigger than that. He helped with our bags (I always overpack) and led us outside into this soft, humid air that smelled faintly of flowers and sunblock.

The car was cool inside — honestly, thank goodness for air conditioning after that flight. Our driver asked if we wanted to stop at a supermarket before heading down to the Shangri-La Fijian Resort. I hadn’t even thought about snacks or bottled water yet, but we took him up on it. The store was small but packed with things I didn’t recognize; I grabbed some weirdly bright fruit juice just because. Back in the car, he pointed out little villages as we drove — sometimes slowing down so we could see kids playing by the roadside or someone selling pineapples under a blue tarp.

It’s about an hour or so from Nadi Airport to Shangri-La, but it didn’t feel long. Maybe it was the way the light shifted through the palm trees or how our driver told us stories about his family’s village nearby (his laugh filled up the whole car when my partner tried saying “vinaka” and got it totally wrong). There was a baby seat already set up for our daughter — she fell asleep almost immediately, drooling on her stuffed rabbit. I remember thinking: this is what arriving somewhere new should feel like — not rushed, not confusing, just easy and kind of gentle. Even now, that first “Bula!” sticks with me more than most airport memories ever have.
