Travel Report - MLE : Day 5 (HM)

so the lovely holiday now came to its end... pagi tu sempat lah berkayak... and mandi laut again... lovely weather... alhamdulillah... and by noon kitaorg pun g ke jetty utk ke Male the capital city of maldives. as the flight only departed at night, around midnight rasanya. so kitaorg ada lah mcm half day kat Male.

a very small town... indeed and apparently kat male ni senang cari tour guide. org hotel kitaorg dah set dah tour guide. and those guide ni free of charge, tp pandai2 lah bg tips. and kitaorg nampak mmg ramai org2 mcm tour guide ni kat jetty. mmg blh je sesapa ambik depa ni and semua free and earned based on tips... tp aku rasa for sure lah souvenir2 yg kitaorg beli tu, depa dpt gak commision... actually not bad lah tour guide ni, at least u know a bit about the place plus tak lah sesat, although pekan ni kecik...

kitaorg sempat singgah kat the 'biggest' park kat male (hehehe... kecik je pun), tgk the oldest masjid (oh... maldives ni 99% muslim, so makanan senang lah), then tgk palace lama yg tak leh masuk pun... and the interesting one, g ke pasar basah i.e. for sayur2 (banyak pisang n kelapa) and ikan (mostly tuna). of course lah singgah kedai souvenir and restaurant utk late lunch. sebelum balik ke airport. nak ke male dr airport (vice versa) kena naik bot gak...even local pun naik boat, cost us USD1 per boat ride...
airport dia pun kecik je... bye bye maldives... i won't come back.. hehehe... :-)
