First Impression of the Maldives

We're at the London Gatwick airport with passports and boarding passes in hand!

Only allowed to check-in one bag and it can't exceed 23 kilograms...I logged 22.2 kg, BABY!

Here's our bird to paradise!

We've arrived to Male (Mall-E)...

Taking the speedboat from Male to Meeru Island Resort...

Thar she blows!

My first picture of the resort...

The walk to/from the jacuzzi water villa...

The view from the back porch...I didn't sleep well on the flight so I took my nap on this lounger...peaceful!

The amazing infinity pool so close to the water villa...spent many days & evenings swimming and reading under the palms in a lounger.

Exploring the island and found many shaded walkways through the sand...no cement here, kids!

Ah...the beautiful flowers blooming...

I even found my favorite, the plumeria!

Capturing that first sunset...

The perfect spot to sit and watch...
