Wait for me ... Maldives

It is never easy to leave a place and say goodbye to where I really fall in love, to where I really have "feeling" on. I got all my tears drop when I have my step on the seaplane, when I saw the Rangali Island became smaller and smaller. I hope I still have many chances to enjoy my life in paradise again before it really disappear on earth due to global warming ... lourdes

Goodbye again ... Maldives

It is the time to say goodbye to Maldives again. I am so glad to have my stay at the paradise on earth, but I feel very sad to go back to hell soon. When I got the letter about tomorrow's arrangement from the resort tonight, I can't help from falling all my tears into the Indian Ocean right before the entrance of my villa. It hurts ... I just recovered from leaving Cocoa Island and Pie de la Cuesta. Girl, don't cry, be strong, " Maldives here always for you..." and for those who fall in love with Maldives, with tears ... lourdes

Sunset @ Conrad Maldives Rangali Island 24 Jan 2009

I walked to the very far end of Spa Water Villa area to see the beautiful sunset tonight. The guest at room 419 is a friendly and handsome Italian guy while the one at room 417 is a French guy. They swam together at Inidan Ocean while i was up the pathway to see the sunset. They suddenly came to my way and asked me to take photos for them. The Italian guy then gave me his business card so that i can email him the photos and a beer for taking photos for them. He did ask me to go inside his private sundesk for sunset photo taking, I didn't go in... maybe i should go and have a look when i think back ... lourdes

My leisure time at infinity pool

I could finally wake up this morning to wait for the sunrise. Sunrise at Indian Ocean is always the best and the most beautiful to me ... lourdes

Beautiful Maldives

I have a wonderful dinner @ Sunset Grill Restaurant tonight. The night view of this restaurant is really amazing, and of course the night view of the main island and the whole resort is really impressive to me ... lourdes

Fall in love ... Conrad Maldives

I had a leisure walk over the main island after the full breakfast this morning. The picturesque view is breathtaking, and I can't help but falling in love. I start falling in love again, I miss everything here, I hope I won't drop in tears when i leave ... lourdes

Food and beverage @ Conrad Maldives

I am so happy as I can try two different restaurants during my stay at Conrad. I am not wine expert, but I do drink wine if I meet a very nice restaurant with delicious food.
Top: Wine Cellar, a wine lover restaurant, offers 5 delicious dishes with different wines. There is a monitor over the dining table, and we all learn about wine and their origin.
Bottom: Ithaa undersea restaurant. We enjoyed our great lunch in a underwater world. There is so many different kinds of fishes around me.
These are the great and wonderful experience that i ever tried before ... lourdes

Paradise ...

Top: I was in main island, waiting for dhoni
Bottom: The arrival/departure lounge, dhoni and spa water villas at the very far
They are all beautiful ... lourdes
