The clear, blue, shallow sea of Maldives

We take a end year break in Nov to Club Med Maldives (the deal is a great steal!)

Life goes back to basic there.
We take our own (sweet) time doing sports, eating, drinking, chatting, fish watching, resting (I mean sleeping), watching sun rise and sunsets, hang around the beach. No rush!
This is the first holiday whereby we are totally 'out of reach'. Turning off 3G and no Facebook for a week is 'shiok'! hahaha!

For me, I felt really really relax! In Singapore, I can never has the luxury to sleep for total of 12 hours a day (night sleep and mid day nap). I also tried out Yoga by the sea. Oh man! It's amazingly nice especially it was done at sunset. Hope to do it again if there is any here.

We walk around the island, looking at nice fishes and corals of variety. Water is too shallow to snorkel. But its good this way as we can take photo easily.
We are sad to see lots of dead corals. The global warming causing the water temperature to raise is the main reason for this :( Even at the Atoll, we see more dead than live. This trip really makes us feel that we have to be more environmentally friendly.

Yes, the photos... will be uploaded later (hopefully tomorrow) as its too many. hee..

This trip will complete our Indian ocean island tour. Moving forward, perhaps to go Tioman or Redeng (South China Sea)

Look forward to our next trip :D
