Honeymoon - Day 8: Maldives - Enroute to Maldives and first day

Part two of the honeymoon.  4 nights in the Maldives!  

We were carrying some sake that lil friend's Japanese friend's dad gave us, and because Maldives frowns upon alcohol, we had to leave these two bottles at the airport.  As a result, it made us miss our sea plane to the island and we had to catch the one 1 hour later.  This was a blessing in disguise because that meant we got to enjoy their lounge for an extra hour.  There were nice couches, snacks and drinks, and even a massage person there to try to lure you into getting a package at the resort.  The drinks they had there was also really delicious!

Once it was time, we headed to the sea plane which took us to Vilu Reef.  We checked in, and went to our beach villa, where we would stay for one night.  The beach villa was amazing!!!  Our backyard had a swimming pool (aka. walk out to the lake).  The room itself was circular in shape, mostly white walls, super comfy bed, nice air conditioning.  The part that was even cooler was the bathroom was outdoors (which can only be entered through the unit), and had a waterfall shower, a tub, and a closed 'regular' shower.

After a quick room service lunch, we went out to our backyard for a quick swim, seeing tons of little fishies.  Then before dinner, we went to watch the stingray feeding, and got up close and personal with the sting rays, and also just strolled around the white sandy beaches surrounding the island.

For dinner, it was an all you can eat feast.   Tons of really yummy fruits, and also meat.

Tomorrow we will move to the Reef Villa - aka the bungalows on top of the waters!  Excited!
