Going in to the outdoor tub was far from the biggest challenge I’d ever faced, but I still conquered it. Sometimes, especially in the middle of the night, it is good to be reminded that I can be brave
The pilots fly barefoot. I’d watched enough YouTube videos while planning my trip to the Maldives not to be surprised by that.
I knew, for example, that the bathtub of my beach villa was outside. I’d never stayed anywhere with an outdoor bathtub. I wanted to try it. I knew I’d regret not trying it.The villa, and especially the bathroom, was as gorgeous as the internet promised. The bathtub was long and deep, the white ceramic a gleaming contrast to the dark stone flooring and grey walls. There was a sleek rainfall shower, huge double vanity and a toilet hidden behind frosted glass.
Not everyone is a bath person. I am. The tropical downpour was inches away. I could reach out and touch the rain from the tub. The sound was soothing, the air incredibly fresh. The storm blew over and the sun came out. The air smelled even better.I wasn’t expecting bats. Sharks and stingrays, sure, but not bats.
