7 Seas #5 Normal Kradan routine, although we detected some guests were suffering from island fever. The tides were very high, so I had to wade to the Tenko resort to fetch water. Another morning of swimming in the turquoise water, reading, playing backgammon and snoozing. At times like this on our trio we amused ourselves by inventing nick-names for other guests. Our favourites so far: 1. Hair ball (girl with bad afro) 2. Scar-tit(needed a better plastic ...

7 Seas #4… Up for swim before breakfast. Breakfast. Swim, read, natter. Normal weather pattern….this time the clouds looked like the opening scenes of Independence Day when the space ships arrived. The black wall appeared at 2.15pm. An incredible spectacle and everyone was watching as if a beautiful sunset. The wind picked up at 2.25pm and it was still tipping down at 6. Went for an early dinner at 630 to avoid the rush. Everyone else has had the same id...

7 Seas # 3 I was dispatched at 0730 to lay towels on our preferred loungers. Totally unnecessarily as it happens as lots of folks were leaving.

I guess we haven't just stumbled across these places by chance……Meanwhile it looked like a large rodent had kelped itself to some...

7 seas #2 Many of our fellow guests were our central European cousins, hence by the time we had finished breakfast there wasn't much left in the way of free loungers or prime shaded beach space. I nabbed the last two bar beds and chucked as the new arrivals and late starters pitched up and struggled….. A-lo and I swam out to the reef and snorkeled: saw lots of fish and coral although the giant sea urchins with an alien eye were quite unnerving. For lunch we...

On our last morning on Muk, wechecked out the big local attraction: The Emerald Cave. Longtail man arrived at 0800 and introduced himself as David Beckham. This one obviously had a sense of humour…..A short cruise to the other side of the island and we picked up a mooring at the foot of a sheer jungle cliff. 50 meters front of us was a small hole at sea level, with the roof a person's height. Annelise pushed her boundaries, climbed down the ladder, donned fli...
