15th Feb 07 - Male
After a full day at sea, we arrived at Male - the capital of the Maldives.

|
| Gravestones. The taller they are, the richer the person. Pointed tops for men, rounded for women |
|
| Like Saigon last year, the motorcycle was the preferred mode of transport. |
|
| The Presidential Palace |
|
| As
ever, it was the fish market that I liked best! Here the Boneto(?) fish... |
|
| ...and Red Mullet |
|
| A really expert fish gutter! |
|
| Beetle leaves for chewing. I think they are a sort of "legal" drug! |
|
| Yes, we have some bananas! |
