Diego

 I got to fly to Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. It is south of the Maldives and east of the Seychelles. Absolutely beautiful.
It's part of the British Indian Ocean Territory
White powdery sand like Thailand and black rock
 The mile marker shows this place is the definition of out in the middle of nowhere. I like that I've been to most of the places on the signs.
 This is turtle cove, and as a British wildlife sanctuary, the fine is $1,500 for swimming...almost worth it
 Dude Crush and his friend
 Gotta love turquoise water
 Some of the locals: a coconut crab and donkeys
The one in the front told me he's makin' waffles
This is what's left of a pier used to make deliveries to the old coconut plantation
 
 
 An old WWII plane wreck
A beautiful island and a great trip. I only wish I could have taken my wife here. She has always wanted to go to Diego.
