Day 22 - Laamu (Maldives)

A whole lotta of whatever today and we were totally good with that. ☺️

Late breakfast but still in time for Rocket 🚀 Fuel and pancakees … and for Mike to delight in Egg Benedict, which has been a go-to for him the last few days. A little tutorial of breakfast has been provided so you really get the lay of the “land”.

After this … we spent late morning/early afternoon at the villa for some more snorkeling 🤿 with our sea familia. Mike snagged an underwater pouch for his mobile so underwater photography = happening (Z already did research for us and confirmed iPhones without a protective case don’t exactly capture under water footage 😂).

Water wasn’t super clear but we were able to find a small coral reef in the waters out of our villa. They never do the beauty justice but we hope it provides some insight to Finding Nemo - Maldives edition. Enjoy the videos!

Late afternoon we changed up the scenery and moved the “party” to Sip Sip for a beach view. Captured a fancy crab moving his house — beach front —> forest view. Reminded me of that yo mama joke … “I saw your mom kicking a can down the road and I asked her … whatcha doing? And she said … moving ..” Stupid joke I know but they do carry their homes on their backs, right? 🤷🏽‍♀️

We did slip in ice cream … just once today …

A — Burnt Milk + Strawberry
M — Oreo + Mint Chip

Evening agenda … Thai! Set menu for the evening in the Longitude (restaurant) was Thai so we most definitely signed up for this. We don’t like to wish time away but we were a wee bit excited for 7:30pm. A shower to wash off the salt and spiff up for the night (lots of showers on this trip with all the marine biology work we are doing) … then as two eager beavers we biked to Thai with grumblies in our tumblies.

Menu for the night include two of our favs … Khao Soi and Mango/Stickey Rice. Amazing! It did not disappoint but we both agreed Thai Pepper will be on our visit list asap upon our return to woodtown.

Another night to bed with fully bellies and full of gratitude! Tomorrow is our last full day here … 🙈

Welfare check on Mike … no tears (yet) and still plans to accompany me back to US. 😂

Hugs!
