Day 9 – Veli Resort

The day starts after another excellent breakfast, where Bene gets another specialty from the chef, specially prepared tuna with chapita, these are small pancakes that you tear off and then eat the tuna with, with a huge surprise when we get back to the villa. Our bed is covered with rose petals and strips of banana leaf with “Happy Anniversary” written with it. Whether the chef’s specialty was to gain time for this will always remain a question. We had said too much in that conversation with the chef housekeeping, but we really didn’t expect him to remember it and give an order for something like this. The rest of the day was actually a copy of most other days here, sitting on the terrace, drinking a cocktail or smoothie, reading a book and swimming a bit. Soon our last dinner here, and what do you know, they did their best here too, and then tomorrow at 05:45 Fathi will be at our door to pick up the suitcases because the boat to MalĂ© leaves at 06:15. The flight leaves at 09:15. In the evening we land at Schiphol after a two and a half hour stopover in Dubai.
