Chasing dolphins

We are so lucky! Check this out, last week when we took a cruise with Eva we ended up on Capricorn, a boat she chartered. Beautiful boat sure but it's not Damai Indah, Eva's own boat. We had a great time on Capricorn but Eva super generous as she is felt bad that she couldn't offer us the cruise she wanted to, so she told us (and all other guests on board) that if we were still in Langkawi when Damai Indah is back from repairs we could take the same cruise again for free!

Obviously that's an extremely kindhearted offer and we just had to jump on it, so yesterday it was time to chase the sunset again, and as it turned out we even got to chase some happy dolphins. Eva spotted them first and as soon as she did she maxed the music volume, cause according to her dolphins love music, especially Boney M. Damai Indah did a couple of eights in the water, we all applauded the show the dolphins put on for us, and it was magical. It was the first time we've ever seen dolphins in their natural habitat.

There's something unusual about Eva, she's a brave woman who has chosen to live her dream in a business occupied mostly by men. You can't stop wondering how many people she has inspired to make a change in their life, and to take a step towards their childhood dream.



It was not only a beautiful day with view like a screensaver, but also the day we got to meet Anna and her family from Tasmania. Sometimes it just happens - it clicks from the start and you know that you can be great friends. We realize that there's quite a distance between Sweden and Tasmania but if we made it here, we are going to make it there!

After sunset we reached shore and wrapped the day up with drinks at Casa del Mar together with a young couple from Västerås, Sweden. Finally we stumbled into a cab that drove us home.

Many thanks to Eva, Anna and everybody else we shared laughs with during this amazing cruise.
