... and then dropped us off along the street where a van was waiting for us.

After we got in the van we introduced ourselves to the driver and the guide, then were on our way. We stopped by a currency exchange and a grocery store where we could pick up some local rum (sugar cane took up 90% of the crops grown on the island). As we continued to drive along the beach we stopped by a house, thinking that is was the ...

... the ladies presented us with sandwiches, samosas and other local spicy pastries, and fruit juices. It was very nice to eat together and catch up on lots of news.

After lunch I showed a PowerPoint presentation on recent developments in French Africa, and then I answered questions for half an hour or so, about several prophetic events and interpretations, the Pope's recent encyclical, Church history and specific groups, the annual Holy ...

... sands which cooled at different rates leaving them in different coloured layers, red, brown, violet, green, blue, purple and yellow. Unlike the coloured sands at the Isle of Weight (I think if my memory serves me right they're at Alum Bay) these sands always separate back into their appropriate layers if they're mixed up, as you might expect you can buy very small bottles of the sands from a ...

... I managed to rip the material on our ring as we were hanging so far off the side so for the rest of the ride you had no choice but to be within 2 inches of the sea which made it even more fun! Nearing the end Matty and I had made a few comedy bails and tried to jump over to the other ring to no avail! By the end we were knackered but it was well worth the money - we were out for ages! Then it was home via super U to prepare for a big farewell ...

... the more mauritian beaches we'd been to before. It was nice none the less and plenty of room for a bit of frisbee and catch plus burying me in the sand! Then it was time to head home, we were very tired and the footy was on terrestrial TV so it was BBQ'd tandoori chicken we marinaded out self, veggie skewers and a chill infront of the tele in the glow of our warm sunburn from yesterday!

... Our bungalow is big, a bit primitive and has no A/C (I know what we promised ourselves in Mexico: not without A/C anymore. I mean: we DID have a Tarantula in Guatemala but there was A/C) but I am jumping with joy, until, ..., until, I bumped into a moth, a worm and a couple of ... cockroaches. In 1 minute. IN OUR BEDROOM. I can handle spiders, snakes, mice, rats but no cockroaches. This is a 'poor Tony' story really. I jumped on a chair (stone naked) and ...

vashil was a classmate from st joseph college and we met in rodrigues, he wanted to visit cite patate and my thisrt for adventure made me follow. we bought a box of sweets for the children. after a 20 minutes walk behind the patates cavern, on a path full of corals, we met some fishermen on the shore. on seeing us there was a team of young lads (all about the same age, 10-12)who came with wide open curious eyes, we gave them the sweets and ...

... visit, and more of an educational experience on our behalf. For the older children who lived there, workshops were held teaching them life skills and information on relative topics. For example, we sat in on a literacy workshop in which the children were making cards for their mothers wishing them "Happy Woman's Day" and promoting a stop to domestic violence. In doing this they were practicing their writing skills and learning how to address envelopes. I thought it was ...

... rest of the ride. The little girl was eating a chocolate cookie and it was melting all over her face, so adorable. The mother took another of the cookies out of her bag and tried to hand it to the little girl, to give to me. The girl was way to into her cookie to care what her mother was saying to her, so she just gave it directly to me. The cookie was like an oreo dipped in mocha chocolate, it was good. I thought that was incredibly thoughtful of the woman, and to think she is only a ...
