Anne and Rob take the Maldives


So. Newsflash, we have continued eating and drinking our way through the Maldives.... After we landed in Male we stayed the night in a small hotel (where we stayed for 10 hours yet managed to have 2 meals) and hopped a sea plane to our resort on Moofushi. The flight was terrifying and exhilarating with a side of breathtaking. A bit of an emotional roller coaster if you will. The view from the sky was absolutely unbelievable and it was without a doubt one of the coolest modes of transportation to a hotel I've ever seen. (Vegas - lets get it together - an escalade? What are we peasants?) Once we landed at the resort, we took off our shoes, grabbed a cocktail, and have been repeating that over the last few days. Our bungalow is so amazing (snaps for Rob) although being able to see the baby black tip sharks directly under our deck on the reg isn't great for my snorkel confidence.      


We have dinner on the beach every night, with at least one to two bottles of wine (because why not). The wine list here is at least 20 pages and the resort has about 10 sommeliers on staff. (Can you say Anne's dream job?) The good news is that crossfit coach Rob convinced me to gym so that we can continue our eating habits and don't return to the states as the blimps formerly known as the Caseys. We have had some amazing meals with the exception of last night where we day drank ourselves into a slumber that lasted 12 hours. (Damn you dark and stormies) So this post is coming to you from a very hungry Anne at about 5 am Maldivian time. But don't you fret, we have only two more hours until breakfast.....
