"We're all going on a Creole holiday..."

This time next week I'll be in the sunny Seychelles, hopefully sipping a long tall drink of some sort and feeling the white sand in between my toes.

I. Can't. Wait.

I'm so excited right now - I can hardly believe we're going!! Apparently Mahe is so small that we can do a round trip in a day. There's going to be so much to explore, and hopefully we'll manage to fit in as much as possible.

I definitely want to go snorkelling. I can swim, but I've never done any diving...or in fact ever swam properly in the sea. Although, come to the think of it, I've never been to a beach where the waters are calm enough to swim in (for weak swimmer like myself). The most exotic destination that I've visted to date has been Goa. I imagine that the Seychelles will be very similar - and perhaps even more interesting as there are different islands that we can hop to.

Just checked, and it's 31 degrees over there at the mo. 31 degrees!! It's 9 degrees in London. WOO!!

SIX DAYS AND COUNTING!!!
