A day for naps, prayer, reading, recovery, study, and the human need to step out of noise for a little while.
You rinse out your plastic bottle under the tap, the water running clear after a day of hiking the Grand Etang trails. You fill it again with fresh water, adding a squeeze of lime from the tree in your yard. A clean bottle makes the next sip taste better, and you're ready for whatever the island throws at you.
At the market in St. George's, the stalls are piled high with nutmeg, cinnamon, and bright peppers. You fill your cloth bag with a few spices and some fresh breadfruit. The bag grows heavy, but you don't mind, because it carries the island's flavor and warmth.
You encounter the dodo's living relatives and the endemic Mauritius kestrel, along with colorful endemic reptiles like the round island boa. You find that cats, dogs, and fish are the most common pets among Mauritian households.
