April Fool's day of travel of the Maldives

April 1, 2005

Maybe this is the fate, the day of March, a morning network of rambling, I noticed a significant word ctrip online: "Maldives 4999, Miss no longer to" words, Wow, so cheap, the Maldives is a synonym of aristocratic tour, prices are more than 8000, such price, how can we miss it! so identify schedule, schedule it, fast Internet access, but even so, the date of the original hope was robbed, had to leave early to April Fool's day.

Set all after thought, a few days then going to see, discover our selected hotels an optional water housing Chamber, we set the holiday flats are not in the water, go to the Maldives could water housing, it can be greatly diminished! hurried a telephone call to ctrip, and receptionist some discussion, it is not possible to change the order, but the receptionist will notify the hotel we have upgrades its wishes, wait there and then fill the post, I also checked, and upgrade water housing subsidy for one hundred dollars per night.

However, at that time may not think this phone's role ... (This is the way down the line)

Finally wait to start the day, we went to Pudong International Airport, take the Singapore Airlines's 777-300 aircraft take off at nine o'clock, on an airplane and a good breakfast, Chinese is dried and shredded pork fried noodles, Western-style crispy potato cake is, Beef sausage and scrambled egg, properly to SIA rich machine entertainment facilities, see film time too nice and fast, and in the afternoon and supply a pork or salmon sandwich.

Afternoon around the Singapore Changi Airport, because the distance off the plane, we've got a lot of time to take the subway from the airport to the city to the Buddha's square, shopping in a meeting, go to the wealth of the fountain there to eat dinner. Along the way discover shopping centre piece has a koi Garden, there are a lot of very big carps, red, yellow, and black spots. Because special wants to eat ice cream, so select a dinner in St.-of course eat chicken, rice, salad, etc. Then we take the subway back to the airport, SIA 777-200 aircraft was taking off at eight in the evening, going to the Maldives.

The aircraft also ate the chicken, mashed potatoes and pudding, this is already the fifth today eat meals and eat out asleep, really tired.

Aircraft to local time at 9: 00 pm (Beijing time at point 45) to the male ' international airport. Interestingly, there are other airport Taxi signs, whereas here only Boat, HA HA, the Maldives is one of the island, the airport is on the island, an island is a hotel, go to the hotel, of course, only a boat! at the airport it was holding individual hotel brand for guests, lunged into moist breezes, this just reminds you to the island. We stayed in was a full moon Island Resort (Full Moon Beach Resort), approximately 15 minutes by speedboat, heard that belongs to from the airport, close to the hotel from the airport is very far, speedboats to sit for more than three hours, just imagine flying a long time, but also bumped in boats more than three hours, haven't started playing, people have Halo, oh so choose a near point of the hotel is very important!

To the hotel, we are going to and others in the lobby waiting, a waitress brought us please on a car battery, car brings us to the beach, only a small wooden bridge away into the sea, on the other side with five wooden, is this the Maldives famous water housing? but we haven't and front desk contact, with wonder, we have walked into the room, my God, very comfortable and big room and bed also round the bed curtains, all facilities very luxury modern bathroom with shower, bath tub, bath/shower and beside the bamboo curtain, the outside is the sea, bathroom, a balcony, with two chaise-lounges and a small table, there is a staircase directly into the sea, you can make a direct and close contact with the sea.

Back to room, welcome drink, drink the completed check in formalities, just a doubt also in the heart, in the end how much you want to post our makeup? how does not ask to take us to the? well, ask yourself again tomorrow, such a good room supplement all! too like here!

2 April

Wanted a sleep to the big day, but when I open my eyes how dark outside, alas it is slack and biological clock mentality, in Shanghai, it is eight o'clock, but only five Maldives! cant go on to the balcony, the sea breeze blowing very dark, with only around the hotel lobby and we walk the bridge there is little light, surrounded by silence, only the spray rattling sound of "give", and so it was dawn when he took a cup of coffee, in the balcony above the sea breeze blowing over a cup of coffee, to greet the new day, really is a unique experience!

The six more days slowly bright, comfortable shower, then go to restaurants to eat breakfast buffet, something not large, but the fruit is very sweet, the Fed is no problem.

On the way back to the room to the beach seem to go away, where the sand is white, very soft, water is also very clear, very blue, and because there is a small island, surrounded by the sea, it seems really came to paradise.

There was a meeting at noon, describes some of the hotel and can participate in the activities, but there is always one problem plaguing our, is water housing.

Then go to the front desk asked, the answer we are surprised that the hotel now is just the low season, empty room anyway, know that we want to live aquatic housing, give our upgrade, but not increase, this!! wow seems like Ah in the jackpot, the province of at least 300 dollars, really lucky. Open up, we went to a restaurant for lunch, the hotel has four restaurants, but because of low season, not every drive, so the selection is very small, low season also has disadvantages. Here the prices are very expensive, but ate a meal just reached a experience: no matter what, all meals in front of the Pack, it's delicious, pipe full, so can some dinner, there is less and don't drink and water, the giant expensive! remember from domestic with white water.

The afternoon was a little tired and slept the sleep, woke up after change fine bathing suit from the room balcony

Go to the water bubble bubble, very comfortable, it is the sea rocks rolling feet hurt, it is best to wear a pair of shoes.

Our six more to go out for dinner, it was half past seven restaurants to open, and that is Shanghai's half past ten, haven't tried so late for dinner, no way, do as the Romans do! don't want to go back, so the beach bar to have a drink, don't want to have accidentally saw different attractions.

Annabel hermit crabs on the beach are dispatched with large and small, the beach was drilled many holes. In addition because no tall buildings around here, is relatively dark, the stars seem particularly bright, we also found the Cowherd and star! as if or when they see so bright stars, with the Shanghai City is getting more and more bright stars. "Rising stars, Montreal crabs. "Listening to a band singing in low voice, here is what is heaven on Earth!

Finally wait for a meal, and another to Shanghai to couples together in a Thailand restaurant dinner, very tasty! after dinner we went to their just-for-water UK tour, their water is five largest one in the Center, is a suite, there is a bathtub is open, the water can flow like a waterfall that pours down, in particular, of course, their cost is equal to stay two nights, with five thousand Yuan.

Oh, or whether we are free!

Morning on the way to go for breakfast, we see the beach there is a very big lobster may be the evening high tide washed by the waves of time ashore, then back into the sea, seems to be dead, very poor.

There is next to a lobster had died, a lot of crabs in the meat next to eat it?

Later we changed the bathing suit to the hotel swimming pool, a waterfall off sham and shallow water, shallow waters are very shallow, Sham and a deep, play a game after going to the beach sand, dig a pit, heap Hill, not how long it will take to burn like a crab, HA HA!

At noon we went to the restaurant to eat pizza, Hawaii island above everything expensive compared or pizza's cost-effective.

In the afternoon we took part in the hotel's half-day tour of Malé. Malé is the capital of Maldives, about 15 minutes by speedboat to the way great waves, speed boat drive fast, so I feel are jumping, really exciting. That night to night, when I see the sea, now see clearly, the sea is very deep, color close to the black, not know there is a shark?

Malé, the city is very small, compared to Shanghai's a district but also small, just a few road, two hours to go out, may be the place of small, feeling person also very much.

We follow a local tour visited the Museum of natural history, see a lot of extremely bright flower color, and looks strange tree, flowers, pretty much seems fake. We also went to the fish market and the food market, are very small, it feels like old Shanghai in the supermarket. I heard that someone in the fish market can be less than one minute to put a big tuna kill and clean.

Finally we were taken to a shop, like tourism will be brought in the store, buy a little something to give and a site map, the most interesting is the boss of the table under the world currency, but also the RMB!

Six o'clock we then sit speedboat went back to the full moon Island, half past seven to dinner tonight is self-help silkworm meal, but feel very tired, it couldn't eat anything, really tired of the "rabbit", come on, let's go to bed!

"Ah, so sad, or would like to point things to be happy.

Walk into the restaurant, very accidentally found a table for displaying a very pretty flowers, but also very hard to put out a shape, the original is the hotel from the registration form that today is my birthday, specially decorated yeah, really moved! it seems when picking off-season travel, benefits! we also ordered a bottle of champagne, the entire restaurant on our desk, party room, to a little atmosphere, we also especially invited to Shanghai with is of a couple come together to celebrate the last restaurant also gave a small chocolate cake for me, the above plug with two candles, is my two-year-old? hehe.

Afternoon comfortably sleeping napping night went to lunch to dinner in the restaurant, come and go just a few guests, the waiter told us ripe, in Maldives is felt on the island as a family, not too many places to visit, too much time can be wasted, how do you describe?, Xanadu! so quiet, so beautiful!
