The Maldives day 4 at The Adaaran Prestige Vadoo

By
Our third day was another relaxing lazy day for me. We got up and had breakfast then went to go back to our room, but they were cleaning so we hung out at the end of the pier until they were done. It wasn't windy so you could see all the fishes along the walkway!



So many fishes! And so pretty!




It might be hard to see (I think if you click the photo you will get a larger version), but there are lots of tiny black and white striped fish in the coral there. They were so tiny!



The end of the pier

The island from the pier - it was really small






Trying to get the difference between with and without my sunglasses...

We got back to the room and Raymond went snorkeling while I swam in out little pool!



His goggles kept fogging up so I searched for how to make it so they didn't. Ended up cleaning them with some toothpaste and that worked perfectly!

Here is a video from Raymond's time snorkeling - if you want read time photos as we travel you can follow him



I could spy on the fishes from the pool



Shark!


There were lots of fish by the steps into the water so I went down and actually put my hand in the water to try and take photos of them!

Didn't get them most of the time...

...but occasionally caught one!



Just putting my hand in the water when they were swimming right there (and the black, white, yellow ones would come up towards my hand) was a big step for me!


We swam/snorkeled until lunchtime. Some asparagus thing for Raymond 

And a salad for me to start

Smoked artichoke soup - delicious! The soups were always amazing

Pasta with red sauce for me

And cheesy risotto for Raymond

Afterwards we had some drinks in the bar

And watched the fish outside

Then back to the room for more snorkeling/swimming! Raymond took lots of videos of the fish while snorkeling, but I don't know what he is going to do with them. 





And a bit of reading in the pool








Sun going behind the clouds

Dinner was a green bean pomegranate other veggie starter salad

Gazpacho

Bread with oil and yummy spices to dip them in

And mushroom ravioli. Delicious! But so much food!

Then back to the room for the night. It was so nice to not have anything to do all day except relax! I miss the Maldives!

Colmar, France Part 2 - All the museums!

By
So when we were wandering around Colmar and spying on all the things we saw a sign that we happened to be in Colmar on a free night at the museum! So most of the museums in town were free from 7pm-11pm/midnight (depending on the museum). So we of course had to go check them out! There were only four in town so we were able to go to all of them, though by the end we were so tired and our feet were so sore from a long day of exploring and long night of museums.  First up was the Museum Bartholdi, but I didn't take any photos in there (I wasn't sure I was allowed and it was super busy, so many people!). It was super tiny, but interesting. There were a lot of models of ideas he had for different monuments and then what he actually ended up using. The one room was just ideas and designs for the Statue of Liberty which was cool. There wasn't a lot there, but what there was I enjoyed.  Then it was over to the Natural History and Ethnology Museum Cool bugs

San Francisco Part 1

By
  Oh San Francisco. What a wonderful time I had there. It was absolutely beautiful the entire time. Sunny, warm, gorgeous. Plus getting to spend a few days with Jacalen and Patricia = So much fun! We definitely need to do more girls trips! This will be a mostly picture post   I arrived late afternoon and the bus dropped me off near Fishermans Wharf and I walked over to where we were staying. Oh, it was gorgeous outside, but with my bags and such I was a bit warm. Not expecting that in February! Patricia arrived a bit after I did and we had the evening to ourselves to do whatever we wanted! It was so nice out and we were staying in the Marina District so it was just a short walk down to the water. Beautiful!   After wandering along the waterfront for a bit it was time for some dinner! We happened to find the Plant Cafe and I got a plant burger with fries and a salad. Really tasty! Afterwards we went to get a drink and noticed the bar had trivia on Tue
