Maldives

Monday, February 12

After a 4 hour flight which was a little bumpy for over an hour, we arrived by 9pm in the city of Male in the Maldives.  We were efficiently whisked by boat to our resort island. We had a late meal by the sea and then to our cottage.  A lovely space.  Woke up and immediately checked the beach out.
Frank enjoying the view as well .  
To our amazement, there was a massive school of small fish along the shore.  In the photo it  is the dark strip close the shore.  But then along came 1/2 to 3/4 metre long sharks.
The dark image at the top is the shark.  There were about 3 of them and we were only about 1 metre from all of this.  Fascinating!  Later in the morning we put on our snorkelling gear and swam out to explore.  Again only metres from the shore and were were into the coral reef and numerous different fish.   Should be an entertaining few days.
