Chessells in Africa:

Chessells in Africa: Mauritius has been fabulous!  We have seen so much, met lots of people, enjoyed new food experiences and rested "sort of". Unfortunately Keith is having a bit of trouble with his back, not sure from prolonged plane travel, different bed, standing too long, sitting too long..... We are hoping that tomorrow he is feeling better as we are planning to take a half day taxi ride to the airport taking in some of the sights we have not been able to get to in the past few days.
Today Keith & I went for an early morning walk along the beach. The wind had changed direction over night so there were waves breaking across the reef. Broken coral is prolific so thongs need to be worn to protect the feet. We watched the workers raking the beach in front of the resorts and setting up the sun lounges. Later  K drove us through Port  Louis to MBTI where Keith gave a short devotional.  The roads are manic, cars, trucks, buses, motor scooters and people all vying for their bit of the road. Afterwards we caught up with a friend for lunch.
Next stop South Africa tomorrow night.
