| From the sky, the sugar fields are impressive |
|

|
| Montagne du Rempart and sugar fields. |
|
|
| The Indian touch is noticeable :) |
|
|
| That day we went to visit the botanical garden in the North of the island. Waiting for a guide, we got to watch these huge tortoises ! |
|
|
|
|
| ... and their small ones |
|
|
|
|
| I also got plenty pictures of flowers for my collection. |
|
|
|
|
| This kind of tree we had seen many times by now. |
|
|
| ... and a few big ones too ! |
|
|
| Can't remember what fruit these were. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| That kind of palm tree has intereting roots |
|
|
|
| Giant nenuphars from Amazonia |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Pink lotus really are beautiful |
|
|
|
|
| And dragonflies we've seen all kinds of colours during this trip too :) |

|
| It's funny how wild nature and tall buildings can somehow co-exist so close to each other. |
|
|
| There is a sizeable part of Muslims on the island, and they seem to have a beauty contest with Hindu temples and Christian churches ... |
|
|
| This is at the "Ile aux Cerfs" |
