End Session: Mauritius Adventure Continues!
/Dear MRU Families,
It's been a few days since we've written, but we've been so busy! Since we climbed Le Morne mountain, we attended classes at Le Bocage, worked on our presentation project, explored the Last Surviving Forest at Ferney Valley, went to the capital city of Port Louis and the marketplace, toured the sugar museum and learned about the history of the sugar industry, visited the tea factory, the vanilla factory and the rum factory, and ate amazing food the whole way!!
Phew.....
Now, this weekend was one for the students to just enjoy time with their host families and see what a weekend in their lives is like. The kids have been all over, from hotels, to petting farms to bowling alleys to the mall to beach houses, etc. We are so grateful for their hospitality!
Monday (tomorrow) will be our last full day, which we will spend at Le Bocage, finishing our project, attending classes and getting henna tattoos!
Tuesday we go to school in the morning, have lunch and then off to the airport for a 4pm flight to Dubai.
We are sad to see this experience come to a close, but what a fabulous trip it has been.
Here's some photos...enjoy!
I'll send more details soon.
Love from the Indian Ocean,
Ms. Z & Mr. E
