Re: Maldives? Advice from, Bob Fenner :) - 0713/2006
Hi Bob and Anthony:
<Josep>
On the beginning thanks at both for the interest (Anthony for redirect me to an
expert, and Bob for interests to trick me on this trip)
<Welcome>
As I tell to Anthony I'll be a few days on Maldives and I'm searching info for
have a better trip and schedule as much as I can (as looks I have the
same fast overview, all looks really expensive)
My main interests are, dive or snorkel, relax and maybe some professional
interests (maximum I can stop 1 day at my wife) about exporters, traders or
fishers.
<Mmm, well, all the business gets done/through Male... you'll fly in/on the
island next door... transit through here. Not many folks in the country...
few pet-fish...>
I will be on Male north (I'm looking for the island name but I can't found the
name. The hotel is Taj Coral.
Will be great to have your experience on this country.
<Do take advantage of all the diving you can... bring your still and video
underwater photo equipment... Sign up for a/the "package" deal for all as
far as you can. Bob Fenner>
Re: Maldives? Advice from, Bob Fenner :) - 0713/2006
Thanks Bob:
I understand that my best option is dive and snorkel (nice)
There's only a thing that I don't understand on your answer >Sign up for a/the
"package" deal for all as far as you can.
What do you want to tell with it? (sorry maybe my english is not good enough, I
can't understand that what kind of package do you refer.
Thanks
Josep
<Oh, lo siento... entiendo "Toto inclusivo"... Las comidas, bebidas,
transportante, hotel, desportes, buceandes... toto por uno precio. BobF>
Re: Maldives? Advice from, Bob Fenner :) - 0713/2006
Thanks for the response.
The issues was only with the context.
Bob, did you dive?
<Oh, si! Me gusta bucear>
if yes, some divers explain me about higher flows, is it soo difficult?
<Near the breaks in the atolls, out to the Indian Ocean... mucho!>
I'll go with my wife and I'm a few worried.
<The dive businesses there are very competent... If in doubt just dive in the
inner lagoons>
thanks for your explanations.
Josep
<El gusto es mio... pero, no Castellano! Roberto Fenner>
