... 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.  

The next day I went to the beach all day. Some people went wake
boarding, scuba diving, snorkeling, or shopping. We wrote I HEART SAS in the
sand and pretty much loved life. That night we ordered Pizza Hut and it took

... barracuda and loads of little colourful ones but by far the best was a stingray!!! He was hidden under some coral but Roland noticed his tail and coaxed him oue, it was so cool! After being nipped at by a couple of fish because i was too close to their coral we headed for the beach and chilled out on the post card-esque scene until it was lunch time when we got picked up by the a guy from our boat on a little speed boat to get us back. For lunch we had chicken ...

... play basketball with some of the local children of Madagascar, which, like most of you would guess, was a great time and my favorite! Reunion Island: I disembarked the ship with a few friends I've made and proceeded to rent a car and drive around the island. That didn't work out as planned simply because it seems that the world stops on Sundays, except in the States. So what better way to travel than by hitchhiking your way ...

... Mauritius. Life is very relaxed here, the people are friendly, traffic is light and there is always a party after sunset. As for us, we love it here. We are getting to know the people and the village fairly well. We even pay the local rate for a cab, not the tourist rate which is often up to 10 times the price.

... but it was a fun experience. I actually think there is a picture of me holding the rope already up on the South Africa entry. Something I meant to mention awhile ago, when I said I couldn't remember the 'other' thing that I wanted to write, well I remembered finally! We are reading a book called The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy in my Global South class, and one day while I was reading for the next class I read something that I personally found quite exciting ...

... to make our own way to the top of the waterfall, and ended up hiking down the middle of the river on rocks to get to the edge. From Black River Gorges we headed on to Chamarel, where there is another waterfall in addition to the Seven Colored Earths.
