It is always amazing that when you finally can you sleep at 6 am awake and alive are
But in the early morning sun reading a book on the porch is a holiday. After breakfast we enjoy a good espresso, we get our diving equipment in the dive center for them in our back a little further teblaten dry. And after an espresso we go to the Spa for a massage! Very soothing on your stomach on a table and lie under your glass by the sea can be seen rippling while small but strong hands Balinese make the muscles relax. And if we leave the spa completely relaxed is almost time for lunch. You might think that we are turkeys that have been fattened for Christmas, but Christmas has already been ![]()
Really do not you pull such a quiet morning's after a late breakfast, so we particularly enjoy the Gazpacho and some make-your-own sandwiches. Around 14 hours we lie by the pool. Because we are once again not German have been enough in the morning we have a parasol or bed, so then a good rub and every fifteen minutes to cool in the pool. At 17 hours we go through the dive center for the bill to regulate stamps to make up for the staff in our log and say hello. Silvia even asks why do not we just continue. Every six months leave and come back is another thing
After some hugs and shaking hands Marije jump in the shower and goes some order in the mess that our house has become. Juriaan attracts a moment with his camera on the island to the bats, beautiful palm trees and a breathtaking sunset to photograph.
After an hour, the pictures (and the sun is even well below) and our house is presentable again and our 70kg luggage more or less packed: time for a drink! We still have no idea what time we need the following morning at 8 am but since we must check in at the Male airport for our flight to Dubai will be literally before dawn are ..... At dinner we said goodbye to the pink brigade and above Muaz, our personal waiter, and then we pay the bill and (again) an espresso drink. Since this time we were all inclusive (and yes, with some silly band around our wrist) is the taking of additional dives we made out our package, espresso (much!), wifi, the bottle of Chardonnay and a Christmas Eve few cocktails, so that is not too bad. Beer and wine (which in all colors tasted) are in the All Inclusive package, so we assume there is only 1 on the terrace of the Bonthi bar while we distance to the tourists look who throng to the weekly Crab Race (a kind of guinea-race but with crabs caught on the beach and a number on their house have been painted). Not exactly our kind of entertainment but people watching is very entertaining ![]()
We now know our departure ..... Wake up call at 5.40 pm (and we are not even the first but the second seaplane that Vilamendhoo will leave on Thursday morning) and take off at 7.10 pm. And so it is still dark as the telephone, alarm clock with Marije her iPod and our mobile phones to wake us. But as happens in the tropics is the light completely within 20 minutes. The bags on the porch put the final checkout espressos, eat breakfast and then we leave. Vilamendhoo was blessed again! We do not exclude that we again go back ![]()
After half an hour in the water plane we arrived in time to our hefty amount (excess) baggage to check in (and pay, grrrr), but yet again to score an espresso and waiting for boarding on the way to Dubai .... Just a few days holiday town with friends W & L a few days from the Netherlands come to Dubai for the 40th anniversary of L & New Years. And maybe we meet friend H still have a drink, snack or party. And of course shopping, watching buildings and a round of golf on the Championship Course where our hotel is full! Is fixed a lot of fun and also it is always nice that we did not immediately return to the Netherlands undoubtedly cold and dark but our holiday so a bit longer!
