Sunday 19 May 2013 Another adventure on the horizon...... We are certainly holiday 'junkies' to say the least! After topping ourselves with our favourite tipple at Gatwick VIP lounge, we boarded our Emirates flight to Dubai from Gatwick North terminal. A seven hour flight later we landed at Dubai airport and made our way to the Marharba VIP lounge, for....... yes......more drinks! After a three hour wait, sipping Southern Comfort and Lemonade, we made our way to board our flight to Male, Maldives Monday 20 May 2013 The plane landed at Male, Maldives four hours later. A swift shuffle through immigration, recovering our luggage, we met our escort and driven to another VIP lounge to await our seaplane transfer to our final destination, Kuredu Island and Spa Memories of one of my favourite TV series comes flooding through....... "Da plane!" "Da plane!" Shrieks Tattoo Those of my age group will know this quote is from "Fantasy Island! And indeed......we were being flown to our Fantasy Island.l The flight journey to Kuredu Island was all of forty five minutes When we landed we were swamped by the native staff, who, with beaming smiles, welcomed us onto the Island. We were also welcomed by musicians on drums and singers whilst being ushered towards the bar and our initial free drinks So far so good....the Maldivians seem to be a jolly friendly lot........... but alas, no Tattoo
