18-03-2020 Bong & His First Time in Maldives - Last day of the trip, probably last trip of this year too

After having dinner,

we were looking after

some night life...

We read it somewhere about

a night club event,

but we couldn't find it...

So we ended up at Hiyala bar again :)

The next day morning,

we had our breakfast,

then walked through the sports field area...

the resort own plantation

with fruits and flowers...

and spent our very last few hours

enjoying the view,

the wind,

the wave splashing, etc.

at Beach Grill...

Around 2pm in the afternoon,

we said goodbye to

this beautiful island...

We arrived at the pier

plus airport...

and since we had Qatar airways silver membership,

we could use the lounge there.

The lounge we used was The Leeli Lounge,

and it was more or less like the one in Penang :)

The food was so so

and there was no alcohol served. :) 

That's all about our trip to Maldives.

XOXO

12-03-2020 Bong & His First Time in Maldives - From snorkeling to dolphin excursion at Hudhuranfushi

After taking some rests,

we went to another side of the island

to try out snorkeling...

For those who live at the ocean villa,

of course it is a special experience,

but if they need to go to the restaurants and other places,

they need transport...

And after snorkeling,

of course we were hungry....

and after eating,

we were back in action again...

This time,

kayak!

and of course,

we wouldn't want to miss the opportunity

to experience

drinking inside the swimming pool...

where the bar

is basically right next to the swimming pool!

One of the most interesting parts in this trip...

is the dolphin excursion!

Before we departed,

they said we might or might not be able to see the dolphins....

It depends on the luck!

We signed up immediately

when we arrived at the resort.

So we were the very first to go on board....

I believe this is used

as a "steering wheel"...

lol!

We departed around 4pm,

and the boat took us pretty pretty far away from the resort...

So along the way,

we managed to see all kind of villas, 

islands...

When we reached somewhere in the middle of the sea,

one of the boatmen went to the front of the boat

to look after the dolphins....

and all of a sudden,

we were joined,

or we joined "a group of boats"

looking after the dolphins...

Well,

those who follow me,

or us on Facebook knew that we did manage to see dolphins!

Around 630pm,

we were back to Hushuranfushi again,

and the workers were not finish unloading the stuffs.

This was the main reason why a trip to Maldives would cost so much

especially at the resort island,

because everything has to be transported!

For those who stay at Ocean Villa,

they have their dinner at Sunset restaurant.

If you are on honeymoon,

anniversary trip or something like that,

the resort could make special arrangements for you too!

We had some fried fish

at Beach Grill...

and enjoyed the sunset there

as well...

To be continued....

XOXO
