Boiling hot springs at Savusavu

At the hot springs on Vanua Levu in the town of Savusavu, the water is boiling hot - literally. To test how hot, we put a couple of eggs in a canvas bag and sunk them in the bubbling pool. After ten minutes, we were rewarded with two perfectly boiled eggs. This natural heat source offers a totally free and environmentally-friendly cooking experience. While we were there, we met a local family who was cooking their evening meal of chicken and kasava (root vegetables). A great alternative for a family on a tight budget!
