... and had some drinks. It was quite fun with everyone there. Once the time came, we all headed out to a local club where we heard was the place to be on Friday night. After locking up our house, our large mob headed towards the club. Once to the club we found out that it was about $10 to get in. My roommate, Brad, went in for free to take a look for us. He came back shacking his head, saying it’s really not ...

... on the base which has been translated, semi-badly, into English. The booklet is a wonderful example of "things I never heard of in U.S. history" of &#8220;how the other side sees things.&#8221; A lovely bit of propaganda is put forth in the booklet. <br><br> I am sorry that I didn&#8217;t have the time because the place was a marvel for the time that it was built. It could hold up to ...

... a day until catching up with the original schedule.  I'm glad though; it broke up the long voyage to India, and we had a really lovely day.    Mauritius didn't make the list of places to return to.  It's a bit too expensive, and there are other islands in the world that i like better.   ..... but this rum is pretty darn good.   ... May have to rethink the decision and come back just for this.  YUM! Next stop: INDIA!!   

... mast and into the boat itself through the holes in the deck - there we managed to see another giant moray swimming through the boat. There were schools and schools of fish teaming around the deck and we also managed to see a huge multi-coloured trigger fish who was quite interested in us. After that we decided to head out into the coral to see what we could find. We managed to see a few copol things like a white leaf ...

... to take home. After passing a few cool places like Gris Gris and Soulliac we started to head north and our next and final stop was Rochester Falls. It was an interesting drive taking us right out through the sugar cane fields on tiny bumpy roads. We got there in the end and there are two brothers that have organised the place, keep it clean and show the visitors around. We went down to see the waterfall and its very picturesque! A waterfall about 15 ...

... and due to one of their interns leaving they were all very drunk. I played catch up and think I was about on a par with them.lol. I suppose I should finish by talking a bit about the work that I am doing for C3. At the moment I am working on two different projects. One in conjunction with Seth, a project on seagrass and the species around Mauritius. This is to later tie in with the Dugong stomach analysis to be conducted with a ...

... there. I feel really stuck up saying "oh yeah, Mauritius was just okay" but I just want to reiterate that its all relative to the other ports. I've had such an amazing time in the other ports that it really didn't measure up, even though it in itself was a great island. The only reason we started going to Mauritius is because the trip used to go to Kenya but because of all the political problems going on in that country, it is unsafe for us to go. I ...

... House was hiding behind. Did a bit of sunning to dry out further, then changed, paid up E130 for our excellent two night's accommodation, using an E100 traveller's cheque, booked a taxi, and headed for the airport at about 1 pm, even though we have a 4.30pm flight. At the airport, we are too late to get on the 1.30 flight, which is full and just leaving, but wait listed for the next one, and get the call for the 2.30 flight ...

... at the hotel) to Rs. 7 (at local roadside shops). Textiles are in plenty, but not cheap - at least at the factory outlets that they took us tourists to. So many things we saw, so much was experienced, so much was learnt: - Dodo bird got extinct here (and we got lots of refrigerator magnets of the Dodo bird!), lots of extinct tortoises (due to poaching to extract oil!!) and crocodiles and alligators too have become extinct here - Indians speaking fluent French (Creole actually ...
