around the world in 70days

The Maldives was a tropical island like none other.  White sand beaches, palm trees slowly swaying in the wind and a warm, off shore breeze to keep you cool.  We spent our days sitting on the beach watching the waves gently break and sitting on the deck of our bungalow.  A bungalow which sat over the water's edge and allowed us unlimited access to the warm Indian Ocean below.  There were hard times as well.  We had to choose from a wide array of culinary delights, making hard choices even more difficult.  The end of the island held a magical sand bar where beach-goers would sit in silence and allow the suns warmth to disappear behind a blue ocean.  The sunsets were breath taking.  Our time was too short there but well enjoyed, especially after the loud hustle and bustle of Southeast Asia.  Next?  Dubai!
