Seems like my Saturdays wouldn't be the same (boring Saturdays) anymore!
Because of a friend I recently joined this group at FB called Saturday Surf Dhoni (it's an open group for both locals and expats) who are into surfing, snorkeling, sun tanning (diving is soon to be added in the itinerary I believe). This event is arranged and confirmed every Saturday between 09:30am - 3:30pm if there are enough attendees to share for the boat hire charges (the more attendees the less you have to pay, I only paid a 100mrs - around 8usd when I joined last Saturday). That's the only thing you have to pay aside from being a "It's a bring your own baon event" (bring your own food, water, softdrinks, etc'). Affordable indeed!
Nope. I am not into extreme watersports yet. I still don't know how to swim properly (I can only float) but it never felt like I was an alien being with them. I had fun watching the guys surf while I was at the roof deck with other girls and did sun tanning (before you protest I know and talked to myself already "do I need this? I am too dark na noh?!" lol!). But OK kiver! I don't mind being a Kirara but it was more of like enjoying the trip being with friends there.
So anyway while having a great time lying down at the roof deck lazing under the sun with my OPM music I wished I have the confidence to jump off from the boat and did snorkeling like my girlfriends (my confidence is at high risk! just the thought ..scares me already). But hmmmm....A friend told me she'll teach me the proper strokes in swimming so probably next time I could do what others have been doing during the trip (I did swimming lessons before but I stopped, the instructor was just too cute eh, ouch! lol!). Yes, this is something serious I have to consider upon. Learning how to swim while I am still in the Maldives.
Oh! I am loving lately the options we can do here now during our free time. It's never been this fun I must say! Below are some photos taken from the previous trip.
