It's better if we leave now

Alifushi (Maldives) to Bangkok (Thailand)

We're quite sad to be leaving as our stay in the Maldives exceeded our expectations, and as the exceptional food was a major factor in this, it's probably best we leave for our health, though one thing we won't miss about our stay is the lousy internet.

We were booked on the 9.15am boat to Male airport, and during breakfast we received a message saying that our flight was delayed by an hour. This was probably related to the "blue screen" outage that had occurred the previous day, so we were lucky we hadn't planned to fly out a day earlier.

The flight to Bangkok was pretty easy and we picked up a Grab (their version of Uber) which had us at our accommodation fairly quickly. Because of the flight duration and the time difference it was evening by the time we settled in, and we walked to a cheap restaurant nearby for a basic meal.
