| The island was conveniently located only 25 mins by speed boat from the airport in Male |
 |
| Passions shared at Huvafen Fushi |
 |
| Looking out at the coral reef was a favourite pastime |
 |
| Sharing a luxurious champagne jacuzzi bath overlooking the ocean - the height of decadence |
 |
| Heading for a follow up visit to the spa - "Lime" |
 |
| Taking a break from the sun in the well appointed and air conditioned library and movie theatre (called The Lair) - a great selection of books, DVDs and magazines - and several Apple Macs with hi speed internet. |
 |
| Bear enjoying a drink with the resort manager as we wait for the chef to prepare a wonderful multi course barbeque |
 |
| This place encouraged peace and tranquility |
 |
| The resort really shimmered in the afternoon sunshine |
 |
| Naturally serene surroundings |
 |
| The sound of the waves gently rolling in was a beautiful and romantic backdrop |
 |
| To say it was a stylish getaway is an understatement |
 |
| A glass of freshly squeezed juicy of the day was mandatory every morning |
 |
| We met a lovely couple of fellow newlywed Londoners, David and Andrea, and here we are enjoying several drinks and later we boogied to music played by the guest DJ Poet Name Life (official DJ to Black Eyed Peas The END world tour) |
 |
| Suffice to say we all got on like a house on fire, and we look forward to meeting up with them back home |
 |
| Bear took the opportunity to enrol on a PADI scuba diving course and loved the experience and being up close to the amazing marine life |
 |
| We both had to prepare mentally for the inevitable return home |
 |
| We really had such good fun and laughed a lot.. |
 |
| An exotic breakfast to be followed by an invigorating swim in the ocean was a great way to start the day |
 |
| We still found time for our caffeine fix |
 |
| A warm sea breeze as we are enjoying a cool cucumber gazpacho |
 |
| I managed to avoid the temptations of the beautiful jewellery on sale at the boutique store (still in love with my shiny new rock on my wedding finger!) |
 |
| We enjoyed several distinctively dirrerent gastronomic experiences - here at the fine dining restaurant called Salt... |
 |
| ... where we shared the biggest seafood platter ever - so much lobster, crab, prawns, reef fish, calamari, scallops, mussels - it was heavenly and of course we cleared the plate! |
 |
| Bear with the yoga master by the beach for an hour long session as the sun was setting - serene. |
 |
| Jet Ski was another one of the activities we tried - and boy was it fun! (Bear let me drive for a short time before he took over again!) |
 |
| Our large bungalow made us feel protected and invincible with ultimate privacy |
 |
| We truly loved the Maldives and hope to return again one day in the not too distant future :-) |
