Bet you don't !  run that is.
I went a few years back (Baros) and I have never been anywhere like it before or since (just like the postcards), but it was too hot to run, just right to laze around doing nothing!!

Haha! I don't feel right if I don't run every night. Saying that, I haven't been anywhere that hot to stop me from running... Yet!
Maldives do sound lovely, I've seen so many pictures. The only thing that's putting me off is the flight. Apparently it's really long and I'm bad enough on a two hour flight to Italy!! Might need to be sedated!!! :eek:

ooooooo Kefalonia? I went there a few years ago. It's a lovely place, go on a boat ride through the caves if you can. It's well worth it. Also, the ice cream is perfect!

Trying to work out if that question is related to my last post
But I really don't know what I want for my birthday... I already have everything in my life that makes me happy
So whatever I get will be a surprise... I know Rich is taking me out for the day though...so that will be nice

when we went we stopped in Dubai for a few hours to re-fuel so we got to stretch our legs for a while. Could you make this a few days stop over?
Also if your island is a fair way from the airport i recommend the sea plane, really quick a great fun. The boats are very basic and small loads of people said they were sea sick!!

Sounds rather interesting. Sea plane could very well be an option, especially if the boats are very small and basic!
Not sure if we would have time to stop over in Dubai, we may be a little pushed for time. I'll certainly have a look into it though.
Do you have any pictures?

It looks so amazing. I really can't wait to go!! It's almost hard to believe that somewhere like this really exists! If you're able to scan the pictures that would be great. But don't worry if you can't. Don't go to too much trouble.
