Maldives

Herrow, fwends. We made it here to the Maldives, which are retarded. We had an easy flight to Sri Lanka and then a 7 hour layover during which we were able to sleep on the floor of the Executive Lounge. Then, a quick hop to Male, Maldives, followed by a 45 minute seaplane ride to our tiny island paradise in the Indian Ocean. Retarded. The dinner buffet is ridiculous - we had lobster tail and five desserts. The water is crystal clear blue and our bungalow is built over the lagoon. We're on "island time," one hour ahead of India, which gives us an extra hour of daylight. We've already swam with huge blue fish and seen baby sharks and hermit crabs. Totally awetally. Tonight, walking to dinner, the moon toenail lined up with two stars to form a perfect smiley face, which we are certain was intentionally arranged for us. It's not looking good for photos and videos before we get home, sorry! The only bummer in an otherwise excellent situation. Oh, and craziness in India and Thailand. The wait will be worth it, though. We're fully expecting cute puppies and kittens waiting for us in bed when we get back to the bungalow.
 
Aloha,
Stew & Daner

Sounds Great. Glad you guys are safe and enjoying your time. Can't wait to hear about the kittens and puppies.

So glad you made it without incident. Hope the kittens and puppies were in your bed -- not bluefish and hermit crabs. I was the one who called and arranged the smiley face -- glad you enjoyed it! My little wedding gift to the best couple in the world. Good luck getting to Bangkok -- although it sounds like life is awfully good where you are.
