Maldives - the Approach

A Plane then a Speedboat
On the cab ride to the Singapore airport the Dodo was scratching her arms. "Babe, why can't I bring my iPhone?" She seemed a bit panicked. I'd banned all electronics - no laptop, no Blackberry, no iPhone. I don't think she'd ever been without electronics in her life. On the plane she was still poking me and complaining. However, once we landed at Male airport at the top of the map, below, the complaints had ceased - the adventure had begun. We were met at the airport by two hotel reps who walked us approximately 100 yards to a waiting speedboat. We hopped on and zipped along for 15 minutes to Embudhoo. It was around 10pm and totally dark.

We walked to our room and collapsed.
