Pacific Rim Fruit Salad

Delicious alternative to the usual American fruit salad, given to me by an accomplished hostess in Australia. This is so good it can be served for breakfast or as a side dish at any meal. If you prefer, you may substitute mangoes for the papaya (or pawpaw) with equally delicious results.
