Alright ! That was a second thought. As I found a few hours free time today I got out on to the road and flaunted the 'hitchhiker's thumbs up sign towards the first vehicle,obliviously our motorcycle- came towards me. It is very rarely that we find a stranger here, that too riding a vehicle and this rider was known to me but he could not follow my sign language as I have mentioned in my earlier post, this is a rare phenomenon in the Maldives.
Hence I explained briefly what was my intention in interrupting his journey, he agreed happily and told me that first he had to go to the jetty in order to send a parcel intended to reach the Atoll Health Center by the next boat which was about to leave our island. So we started to the jetty and he handed over his parcel to the captain of the ferry and then we set out to have a ride around the island.

It just took 50 minutes for us to cover all commutable roads in the island and finish our ride. We had a refreshment at our only cafe', 'Bissofra' and I thanked him for his time and effort and parted ways.

Thank you.
