From Delhi to Andaman Islands

Welcome to the beautiful islands, near Thailand coast but under indian sovereignty.
 Snorkling, diving, boats tours, beaches and home to the water sea crocodiles....







 Havelock Island and beach 7, amongst the best beach in the world. Hard to think about the crocodiles..we just jumped in











 At the scuba diving centre, Leo is entertained


 Off snorkling

 Maya and papa on their way to the coral reef
 Neno fish was there :-)
 And Leo's tour






 Ferry to Diglipur, north part of the Andaman Island





 Sea turtles footprint..we tried during the night to watch them coming nesting but we saw only sand and crabs

 Waiting for the bus to go to the village



 Boat to Ross Island, a little paradise



 And it is Merry Xmas





Xmas dinner




Off to town so we dressed up

In the anthropology museum...papa has a sense of humor when he asked to pause here




The jail as the story of the island has been host to period of blood.


 Last beach in Port Blair, the capital. Our driver said the beach closes at 4pm. So we were a bit stressed to be there on time. On arrival, we did not see any sign for closing at 4pm. Forget the driver, lets have fun. And we did. The higher the better.

Back to the hotel, we talked a bit and said to the hotel man, "do you know why the driver said the beach closes at 4pm". "Yes, it is closed to a group of crocodiles 500 metres away and they like to feed after 4pm"...oups we laughed but somehow felt lucky! we were stressed during the trip because of the crocs and on the last day when we relaxed, it was probably the closest we were.
