Dear Max and Nana
Apologies for our delay in emailing following our special trip with you last weekend.
We all really enjoyed the experience aboard Ananda. Ian just loved living aboard, Lizzie enjoyed the diving opportunities and I appreciated the opportunity to completely relax.
Nana was so kind and thoughtful with her food prep for Lizzie which made it so much more enjoyable for us all. She really worked so hard to make sure we could all enjoy our food.
The highlight for Lizzie was definitely the Manta Rays and I think had she realised there could have been the chance to do a second dive with them she most certainly would have taken it. She did however enjoy the overall diving experience with Fandi.
We all enjoyed learning about the Komodo’s and the people of the islands but thought on reflection if you were to only do two walks with them we all would have missed the first one. The village walk was very thought provoking and the one from the Ranger station was interesting and museum helped enhance our learning.
Please do pass on our sincere thanks to all your crew for their friendly and efficient help on board.
Best regards
Julie Ian and Lizzie Barker
