Visit to Huvadhu Atoll …

The cut on my head being cleaned at G.A. Hospital ...Gd Gadhoo, walking on main road towards the harbor ...
Hello …
Last week … it was hectic alright …
Had to fly out to Huvadhu Atoll
Traveled all around the atoll …
The weather wasn’t so good …
And the ride around the atoll was very tiring …
The trip is gonna be unforgettable for 2 reasons …
One … the ride was so bumpy that …
I hit my head hard on the launch door jamb …
And got a cut right on top of my head …
The cut was so bad i had to get a tetanus shot …
Luckily, not so much blood was involved …
Second thing was …
I somehow managed to stop by my mum’s island …
My mum is originally from this atoll …
Though it has been a very long time …
Since she has been there …
I stopped by the island for 15 – 20 mins …
Had coffee with a cousin of mine …
He told me that i was the only one …
In my family who has not been there …
And he was very happy that …
I’ve finally managed to come …
The feeling was mutual …
I was happy to be there too …
Kinda felt weird … mixed feelings …
A mix of alienation and a feeling of belonging …
Dunno for sure … have to give it a bit more thought …
