Sri Lanka-Maldives honeymoon trip (7)

Shipping line ten to twenty minutes, the indigenous Islands, there are no buildings, all of them are flat, the guide told us that there is no work of indigenous, because, the Maldives is a pure tourist countries, apart from a small number of seafood, the other nothing production, industrial, everything needs to import or export of the soil; the only rubbish. (Composition of the Maldives is a coral island, the island has no soil) to each resident monthly grants money or food equivalent goods such as cloth, everyone benefits worth about US $ 100 or the equivalent of money. The island has a rudimentary schools, but the guide said, went to school not many people, because we all need not only rely on State subsidies of material can be a good life, so most people are lazy and don't want to go out to work or study, the State does not require a child must be the number of education. Everywhere you see playing children and lazy man. The tour takes us to some of the more affluent people looked inside the courtyard, there is generally a courtyard planted many trees, also some vegetables, such as the roof is sharp, the eaves of part a with the pipe, pipe flows into a large cistern. Guide to our explanation, here surrounded by sea, the island had no fresh water, residents of fresh water are imported, on the national supply, not enough you can buy, but very expensive, therefore, they generally have a storage device at home, to collect rain water for washing and use in peacetime, and suddenly we found from a window table actually put a computer, wonder, here in isolation, to the computer what dwellers without work, literacy of people or more, and do not have access to the Internet, because here's telecom industry is not developed, residents are not installed by the phone House, the only place near the Wharf has several pieces of magnetic card phone, so we asked the Guide, the Guide smiled, "maybe someone putting on the dog gas. Didn't you see just the House also has a TV set? actually here cant get the TV signal, you didn't find your room no TV? "we found out, Oh, the original television sets and computers are used to" see ".

And go for a while, we saw a room there is an entrance is not very high trees, were called water Po peach fruit.

1 play of Dafa, climb trees to pick a few, this is incredible, housing inside out a wrinkled old, jiligulu do not know what to say and then held out his hand, in this position I'd still know that so awkwardly dropped a few dollars away. Later discovered that this island this fruit more incredible, almost every household has, a tree or even deficiencies, branches and fruit picking low have to bend over and antagonistic, and no one tube, knew this, that do not have to bother to climb that high trees, but also fear. Follow the guide we watched their schools and some small craft workshops, and then give us 10 minutes, told us to look around. In a little manual workshop, we saw a man in wood to make a ship, a fine ship, suddenly, the man staring at my husband carrying a small bag, hand picked up a tame, mutters, presumably to use the ship to change it, we looked at him and smiled, ready to go, the people we are not willing to change, and change a bigger boat requirements change with us, in fact, nothing could have been changed, the ship doing really fine. But my husband package inside a lot of things that jump out too much trouble, we are in the disappointing eyes away, and a boat, a lot of his teammates have said that the Islanders take some stamps or magnetic cards or something requirements change with them on the hat, which is the General tours of the very common hat, direct that unfortunately, no one is how we change hats? what if someone wants to Hat, we sure had changed, it's a good thing.

Left the island of "indigenous" tour guide then took us to a called "shark island", where that is teeming with do not know what the trees, the entire road is like a natural shade of the big gazebo, and do not feel the fury of the tropical sun.

This island is so small, that is called shark Island, the island is only an artificial pond, it keeps some level of sharks, there is also a very nice fish called sea the kites, oddly enough, those of sharks do not bite the sea the kites, they all play, and live. The island gives us the deepest impression is that in many tree not high on the trunk, are tied to many coconut shell, coconut only inside out, we also do not understand what they are doing, then everyone to look at the inside from the chaff, nor remember the oldest who shouted "inside has a no long hair of small parrot!" and then everyone in some coconut shell inside found some small Parrot and bird eggs. Especially when we are in the coconut shell before sneaking around, many colorful big parrots in the bird's next to our cries, dancing, probably afraid we hurt their little baby! tour guide told us that, here, the Parrot is protected. So they made a lot of small Wo to parrot. We looked up and saw head flying a parrot, a little worried ... Sure enough, someone shouted "trick!" and others immediately handle in the hat to the head, leaving just change for others in the hat that head rat series, congratulates: blessing in disguise, theoretical, is no.

Leave the "island of the sharks," which is about 11 o'clock in the morning, we went to the 50 dollar last island — "Paradise Island".

Paradise Island is a relatively large island, with our coconut Island, is a hotel, but this hotel's pattern with our coconut island is completely different, island above modern facilities are complete, all the places are able to see the carefully planned traces her villa is built on the water, a long breakwater, respectively to each villa, just like a bunch of Dai village of diaojiaolou, and it is not our coconut Island, then there is taste of the "home", there is no independent private space, by the seaside place with a very beautiful beach, the beach above also has lots of attractions, the most attractive to ourOr a simple swing, adults and children scramble to play Afar.
