lucky as we were, we only shared the island with the staff and 7 dogs.. this means that we had 2 days all for ourselves. only an american guy, who took care of the place, was there to check on us every now and then and have lunch & dinner with us.
we had a wonderful time discovering the wild animals, chilling at the beach, watching sunrises and -sets and hang out at the 'castle'. just enjoy the pictures from paradise:

after arriving on friday we were told that there were no harmful wild animals around. that's why we felt like playing 'robinson crusoe' and wander through the woods. not only then, but generally the paths were full of spiderwebs, which we had get used to. i must have caught a poisonous one, or maybe had an allergic reaction, but right when we finished our little tour a strongly itching rash appeared on my neck.
slightly panicking [as we were 3 hours away from civilization] we asked the staff for help, which nodded knowingly and brought me some aloe vera; which apparently grows around here.
this made me feel quite fancy [you pay a whole lot of money here to get the real aloe vera stuff], and i felt better after an hour. thank god, the rash disappeared as fast as it had come.
