Mauritius…not…wait, YES!

Originally we were told we were not going to be able to get off in Mauritius due to weather.  We were all so bummed, but I think people took it well and knew there was nothing we could do about the weather.  So on our "Mauritius" day they planned a bunch of fun activities for the students all day to try to make up for it.  We had brunch in the morning, a pool party (with no water in the pool), a barbeque, and a game night. But that afternoon that announced that we will be able to go to Mauritius after all for a few hours the next morning.  So we all got up at 5am today, we cleared immigration by 6am and were out the door by 7am.  Only problem that I didn't think of was that nothing was open at 7 am :/  We explored the downtown area for a little bit, but they said nothing would be open until 10am, so we headed to a beach about a half hour away.  It was very short, we left the beach around 10am, but nonetheless I'm happy to say I got to actually see a little bit of Mauritius…and it is beautiful!
