@pineapple_09 - sorry yeah was referring to restaurants being closed on more days. BTW - they do have 2 different kind of underwater camera rentals here at the dive shop. It's $60-80 a day for camera or go pro. And $800 and $1000 if you leave them with the fishes

Weather has been pretty stormy - still haven't gotten a great sunset and doesn't look to be that way tonight. Wife did get sun burnt from the hot tub frolic so I guess that's not a bad thing.

Food has been pretty decent. We tried room service breakfast once (pro tip - if you order one of everything it won't fit on the table!) and Mandahoo breakfast today. Eggs benedict were yummy and sunny side up eggs perfectly done. However, the pork sausage was a little dry and the bacon burnt. We arrived late and were the only ones in the restaurant till after closing. Atoll market buffet is pretty standard, I don't really see the value in 100++ pp and the air being so tepid indoors. Enjoyed a nice steak at the Rangali bar (mashed potatoes and grilled veggies were fantastic). We've done Ufaa and Ithaa on our previous trips, so maybe sunset grill and Koko next?

Surprisingly we are under budget - Maldivian night not running, and whale shark cancelled today due to weather. Latter won't run again till Wednesday, after we leave

If there's anyone here that would like to meet up, we have 2 more days! Sorry we missed you too @GoldenCat_EK
