Maldives II




Happy girl in the Maldives! I didn't blow dry or style my hair the whole week :)

We saw lots of sting rays from our balcony, but none while snorkeling. I saw a massive manta ray while snorkeling outside the reef.

Most mornings I was up to see the sunrise around 7am. It was about 85 degrees and humid, even at that time in the morning.

On Wednesday, we went with three German couples on a special trip to swim with whale-sharks. It took an hour by speedboat to get to the specific island where they live. Our guide would spot them while standing atop our boat, then jump immediately into the water while yelling at us to follow. The whale sharks are massive, growing up to 40 feet long.
