Les Cocotiers Port Louis

Et 4 jours pour faire le reste de l ile maurice, ancienne ile de france. 4 jours c est peu mais la promotion aerienne que j ai eu m inpose ces dates. En effet, le trajet reunion - ile maurice est un vol qui est dit un des plus chers du monde, 20 minutes de vol sont facturees entre 250 et 500 euros.

Mauritius was a nice place to kick back, take a breath of fresh air (something hard to do in some of the countries we have been), and admire the beauty the country had to offer. A couple days before my arrival to Mauritius I still had no idea where I was going to stay. Many of my friends already had plans for staying in beachfront villas in Flic en Flac, but they already had too many people staying with them. I found out ...

... area called Grand Bay.  Our villa was sooo nice! It had 8 bedrooms, 2 kitchens, and a huge pool. We partied in the villa before heading out to dinner and to a beach bar that was filled with SAS kids. It was a gooooddddd time.  <br><br>The next day I went to the beach all day. Some people went wake<br>boarding, scuba diving, snorkeling, or shopping. We wrote I HEART SAS in the<br>sand and pretty much loved life. That night we ordered Pizza Hut and it took<br>the ...

... käest kinni, et sa ikka näeks seda Armani t-särki või Gucci kotti, mis sul täielikust õnnest veel puudu on. Käisime paar vahet turul, aga rohkem ei kannatanud, sest põhjamaalane ei jõua koguaeg nii palju kaubelda. Üldse on sellel saarel kauplemine üks väga kasulik oskus ja kui seda teha viitsitakse, võidakse saada ka normaalse hinnaga normaalseid asju. Ma ei viitsi väga kaubelda, kuna müüja hakkab minu pakutud hinna peale (mis tegelikult on mõistlik!) nägusid ...

... the ship. It was a lot of fun to hang out and chat as well as look at a Romans 4:14-16. We spent the majority of the time talking about the differences between Catholicism and Protestantism. Lindsay was raised Catholic so we threw lots of questions about the differences between the two faiths out to each other. We talked about purgatory, the Pope, and Mary mainly. Later on in the night I went to my ...

... we had cultural preport where our guest lecturer from India spoke about various aspects of Indian culture. We also had two girl college students from India help in the presentation. They informed us about the various festivals and places of interest in India. Of course they mention the Taj Majal and the most interesting part of the night was learning about its creation. The Taj is a mausoleum for ...

... flies! Priorities in life: thirsty: a beer! Some culture afterwards: the statue of Mahé de Laboudonnais, according to our book the symbol of Mauritius like the little mermaid is the symbol of Copenhagen. I would have preferred 'like Manneke Pis is the symbol of Belgium'. Just kidding. But: I am not impressed with my 'lonely planet' book. Flic en flic is not a lively authentic city. The 3 hour walk described in Port Louis is pretty ...

... can's move). If anyone is going to get it, it would be me - so I invested in many mossie repellents! I am really enjoying my time here. It is not what I expected exactly. Very crowded and busy in the marketplace! There is a great fusion of cultures here - French, Creole, Indian and Chinese. The Hindu temples are impressive! Unfortunately there is a bit of discrimination in the politics of the island but ignoring that, it is very multicultural and harmonious :)

... hours drawing and walking while we did all five drawings. We ended up in a store in the mall and did a few drawings there before heading back to the ship. Once on the ship I found Kaylee and we went out for dinner at a restaurant I hadn't been to yet, after dinner we went down and had a hot chocolate at the first place we had eaten together in South Africa, where they had really good hot chocolate and whipped cream. We were back on the ship by 7:30 and we beat the mad rush ...

... and hired a small boat to take us to the middle of the bay where there is a spectacular marine park. It is full of exotic corals and fish. We were able to jump off the side of the boat and do some exploring on our own. I can't imagine better snorkelling anywhere. It was amazing. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures, maybe next ...
