Worth the Journey - The Magical Maldives

This one will be short and sweet because my phone is almost dead and we will be boarding soon. We're on our way to London. I think our feet were confused when we put socks and shoes on for the first time in a while.

The Maldives, particularly the island our resort was on called Haddahha, is an incredible place. I will let some iPhone pics show you the water and the villas but even our good camera won't do it justice. Each morning our personal host asked us what we wanted to do that day like a tour, boat trip, etc. We wanted to scream "Ummm have you seen the pool? Have you seen our room?! That is what we'll be doing today, thank you very much!" So we are leaving relaxed and a little sunburned. :-)

Lots more to share when I have our pictures downloaded but here are a few highlights:
- hearing "have you heard of a Portuguese Man of War jellyfish?" on our first day...and then me getting stung by a stray tentacle not even attached to the damn thing.
- not wearing shoes to dinner because it is in a sand restaurant on the beach.
- Scott sucking down a "flaming Lamborghini" with a Badger fan who now lives in Australia. This was a flaming drink that melted two straws!
- Some of the best people watching EVER!
- Champagne cocktail hour with traditional drummers and a BBQ dinner under the stars.
- Sunset cocktails from our water villa with a perfect view of the horizon!
