Honeymoon in Maldives — Colors of Coconut

 While taking a tour of a local village, our guide asked as a trivia question. He said whoever gets it right at the end of the tour will win a prize.

The question was: “How many different colors of coconut are there in Maldives?”

So, throughout the walking tour, I kept on looking up to observe the shades of colors of coconuts. I saw 9 different colors, but I suspect it was really around 12 to 16. At the end my answer was tweleve — tweleve different colors of coconut.

Ah I was so wrong! The guide said there was only four. Four only? Yes, four only he said. There’s the green, the yellow, the red, and the brown… what a boring answer I thought.

I saw different shades of green, yellow, red and brown. For example, the yellower green, the redder green, the browner green, the redder and browner green, the green with a slight tint of grey and blue….etc. How can there only be 4 different colors?

I guess as an art person, it’s innate in me to make more out of colors.
