The final countdown
... I saw 2 turtles, and a fun snorkel on the edge of a coral reef), a long wurtle and a lot of chilling out. I've discovered the delights of the hammock, and seem to not fail in falling asleep whenever I get into it! However, I did discover the hard way that you shouldn't try to jump into the hammock too quickly as you end up flat on your face on the sand! Much to the amusement to the girl who witnessed it! ...

Beau Vallon, Mahé
Sinds maandag zijn we op het grootste eiland van de Seychellen, Mahé. Prachtig appartement op ongeveer vijf minuten lopen van een - wederom - schitterend strand.
