04. 01. 2008 Trou aux Biches (Mauritius)
The small island of Mauritius welcomes us with a shy sun in the far south, but we are directed in the north where the sun is very strong!
As good "tourists / big sheep" with "our" group, we follow all the various procedures, baggage claim "all together" welcome the correspondent of "our" tour operator, the call "all together" in "our "van that brings us to" our "hotel / village, the animator who always says the same things, the same recommendations (in Italy with your mobile phone costs a lot, it is better to buy a local card ... but come on! Tonight There will be a meeting where we explain all excursions we could do so.) While I nodded mind kidnapped by what nature could show through the window of "our" little van ...
Mauritius has a very lush vegetation and this is due to the fact that it rains here more often ... It made me think of a mix between Panama and Belize ...
After an hour's ride we crossed almost the entire island we arrive at your destination ...
I miss the time to understand where we are or change that we are already wallowing in the water ...
The Indian Ocean, seen here, is much less fear than to Sri Lanka!
Son was a little disoriented when, before such a beautiful, small white beach and clear water, I remained little affected, as those who have already seen so many! I do not want to be so! I will continue to move me each time as if for the first time ...
In the afternoon we decide to do some shopping for the "room" (water, cookies, etc...) Let's go to the nearby Grand Baie, Nick manages to find even a passing car with a nice little family room and after a while we are in the great "Super U shopping remembering the charges made in Playa del Carmen, Mexico!
I thought: "A few hours ago I was in Milan under the snow and now I am in another world, where it is summer, swimsuit (wet), thong ...
In the evening we are "cooked", I prefer to rest chatting with a beautiful lady Roman / Sardinian Giancarla of this and that. Nick, despite everything and everyone goes to the disco dancing with Ivan (the manager of our tour operators on site).
05. 01. 2008 Perebeyre (Mauritius)
[Nick]: This morning we had to go in Port Louis but we woke up ... It will not happen again but we were really tired ... She confided in Mark but not to wake him needless to say that we were their fruit!
As my father says: "A little calm just stand there you know?" Oh no!
What a shame to sleep late in a place like this, skip the visit to the capital, but certainly we do not lose heart, quick look at the map of the island and here we are again after already ride a local bus bound for a location just north of Grand Baie: Perebeyre.
The beach is nothing but nice to swim and sunbathe in the middle of Mauritius, off the beaten tourist places ... Blacks all around us, the beautiful "chocolate" (as Jeff would say) who walked with the bodies so sinuous, reminded me so much the beach of Santa Maria in Cuba ..
Bus stop know a family with the island of Reunion where we chatted for a long time, I had never known anyone to that place so I was very curious.
What a story! The island of Reunion, an island between Madagascar and Mauritius in France but is in effect! Have the euro, they speak French, the French passport and are considered "France" 100% even though more than one thousand kilometers from the "motherland", a bit like Martinique, Guadeloupe and French Guiana. Miss France and Reunion Island, paradoxically, we could go there with only an identity card!
06. 01. Ile aux cerfs 2008 (Mauritius)
[Nick]: Sitting on a low wall that overlooks the beautiful island I note some events ...
Let's start with last night while Mark embarked with Giancarlo and company to disk: Enfant Terrible, I went with Ivan and the two Russian hostess in another.
Filled with free drinks, I drank four rum and pineapple and then after a while I felt a brick on the stomach, but I enjoyed very much. We danced until 2:30 (music a little bit) but in those moments you little bay, we were among Mauritians and you could just see that beautiful jokes that nature was: mulatto girl slant-eyed, black girls with green eyes ...
[Nick]: The evening was fabulous, I danced a lot and when I return in the room, Mark wants to talk and talk until 4:30 am woke up at 7:00! Like two zombies, we are ready in minutes! A van takes us an hour's journey to the port where we embark on a boat flying the flag of Mauritius ...
At first we were a little worried because we had bought this excursion into a kiosk who passed himself off the tourist office, but again, our instinct was right, with few euros we had a wonderful visit.
[Nick]: Take a super fast boat that takes us to the Island of Deer. The island is beautiful Maldivian beach, dine in a hidden area, with excellent fish to grill.
Soon after we take our boat for a tour of the island by boat. We stop near the falls where the athletic local boys dived for tourists ... On our boat we sing and laugh with tourists from Reunion. In the afternoon we return to our beach for sunbathing and enjoying the last several tropical fruits that sold everywhere ...
I took a long walk along the shoreline with Giancarlo admiring natives picnics and swim ... Muslims saw that they dived dressed from head to foot, which the Hindus with their long saris bathed timidly, half-naked Western tourists, I must say however that there is a great respect for these people from us because so far I have not yet saw a topless woman.
[Muriel break from Cilaos, Reunion] j'étais d'avoir fait votre Connaissance. Vous êtes sympa. J'attends votre mails pour apprendre à parler votre here langues sont magnifiques a bientot, j'espere chez vous ou chez nous.
