10/13 - 10/16 maldives

Paradise on earth—there really are no words to describe this place. Set in the Indian Ocean, southwest of India, it is an archipelago with islands you can walk around in less than thirty minutes. I could have stayed here for weeks and I think Clint would agree, as long as he had his snorkel mask. It was a vacation within a trip—full of brilliant sunsets, lots of sun, snorkeling, delicious food and reading—pure relaxation. We will definitely try and return, though with it halfway around the world from our home, it may take some time before we get back here.

Dinner at sunset, served literally over the ocean
The view below our table - see the yellow reef shark? Clint was so in heaven he almost forgot to eat

The colors! And I had to get this GQ pose...
The dock where we arrived
Again, the colors!
View from our room
Another beautiful sunset...

Ah... a lounge by the pool before dinner
Paradise
Perfect water temperature, for me - 85 F

Free kayak rental
And the most amazing outdoor bathroom ever!
Clint LOVED the plunge pool... so he'd regularly do various "plunges"

Nice. Well done, Husband...
