FIJI: Practice Laughing

Fijians are known for ebullience. Everywhere we go, people are smiling--alot--and infectious laughter is part of every day. When we commented on how delightful it is to hear people laughing even when they are working, one villager replied, "Yes, Fijians are very happy. We are taught to laugh! When we are young, we are told that if we laugh, it will make the hard things easier."
A spoonful of sugar? More than that, a way of life.

I can't capture laughter in a blog post--but here is an array of smiling faces.
Pardon me while I go practice laughing!
