| This is one of the last pictures I took, while on Iru Fishu.... my paradise island for a few days! Looking at this photo... it almost seems as though it could be an oil painting from the 1940s. I'm thinking.... Santa Monica beach.... California... It's the Maldives..... the beach front lounge at the Hilton Resort and Spa.... Oh.... what a paradise on earth! |

Morning breakfast before returning to Holhudhoo
 |
| Chicken curry, bacon, hard boiled egg, cheese, cereal, mango juice,... and that dark heavy bread! Coffee too! |
What do I want to do today?
 |
| How about a nice walk along the beach? |
 |
| Go for a swim? |
 |
| How about snorkeling? |
Night views .... the island changes!
 |
| The jetty ... at night.... during the day, all one sees is the blue Indian Ocean... at night... the view changes dramatically! |
 |
| Roots, roots, roots..... |
 |
| A little palm tree takes on such color at night. |
 |
| These roots take on a prehistoric monster type quality at night! |
 |
| Where am I going? |
Views of the Hilton Resort and Spa
 |
| These chairs in one of the waterfront bars look like an art form. |
 |
| Little coffee bar.... great strong coffee! |
 |
| That $11,500 blue 4.1caret saphire with nearly 2 caret of diamonds around it, looked very nice on my finger. |
 |
| Hmmmmm... does thisring look like it needs to be on my finger....? To the tune of $11,500.00? Maybe tomorrow..... |
 |
| Message of love carved on a coconut... |
 |
| Waterfront bar..... and lounge... |
 |
| The main restaurant on the island... |
Even the shopping on Iru Fishu is blue!
 |
| Sit, maybe have a coffee and window shop. |
 |
| So much one can buy! |
 |
| I see the blue window... where's the door so I can go in and do some shopping? |
 |
| That shop is calling my name.... |
 |
| The red illuminated art piece would look great in my house. |
 |
| Or the dolphin jumping over the silver shell would go nicely on my coffee table. Do I still have a coffee table? |
 |
| Another dolphin..... for .... where in my house? |
 |
| Glass turtles could fit anywhere in my house... |
 |
| This lobster is a must! Where's my credit card? |
My place in the sun....
 |
| My place in the sun on the beach of Iru Fishu Island in the Maldives.... forever mine in my mind. |
White sands
 |
| Nice to just relax in the early morning and watch the world come alive... |
 |
| How clever! What a nice added touch to my villa... a bowl of water to rinse the sand off my feet, and a towel to dry them, before I enter my villa.... |
5K per night villa.... invite the whole family, your neighbors, your friends
 |
| This beach front villa on Iru Fishu goes for a mere $5,000 per night. Ten people... that's only $500 per person. 20 people comes to $250...... I'll let you continue the math! Wonder what amenities come with the villa? Maybe one day I'll take the giant financial leap and find out!!!!! When I do.... you all are invited! |

First cup of coffee....
 |
| Hmmmmm good.... my first cup of coffee as the sun rises on the Iru Fishu Island beach... |
Sunset in the Reflection Pool - watch it happen!
 |
| The swimming pool was perfectly smooth reflecting the sun, sky and trees ... |
 |
| The rich sunset colors develop on the horizon as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean, all the while the colors simultaneously reflect perfectly in the fresh water swimming pool on the island. |
 |
| Reflections of palm trees in the swimming pool... |
 |
| Reflections as colors deepen.... |
 |
| Reflection pool at the Hilton Resort and Spa on Iru Fishu Island in the Maldives. |
 |
| Mirror smooth..... |
 |
| Colorful end of the day in the making at the Reflection Pool on Iru Fishu Island in the Maldives. |
