Another wonderful experience when we were in Rodriguez Island... After the 3 days cyclone, thought to take the tour and see what the place has to offer.. Nothing much to see apart from the calm sea and of course the tour around Rodgrigeuz Island.
The island is really charming. We stayed at the Tekoma Boutik Hotel Rodrigues. Its really beautiful and romantic place because of its serene ambience. The staff and the food and the location is totally a winner. It is clean too!
Upon arrival, we were welcomed with the customary home made cold lemon juice. I was all excited because the lobby is overlooking the sea. Sooooooooooooo blue and sooooooo beautiful. All and all, the excitiment was really in the air. lolz..
The next day, we received a cyclone warning. We were brief on what to do and all... but lets cut the story out because we were both WELL after three days of that cyclone experience. lolz
Our last day of the island:
Waking up to the sounds of the sea, splashing waves! Just perfect to sip that hot coffee watching the view. The sun was up and its wonderufl to walk around by the sea side after the storm. I've seen some local people cleaning the seaside. Lots of dead seaweeds and etc...
Oh well. I have so much to tell but to sum it up. We enjoyed our trip to the Rodriguez Island, Its good to visit a place where you've never been before. Hightlight of our tour was the walk with the giant tortoise. The tortoise sanctuary is well kept and definitely worth a visit, which incorporates one of the caves and some captive local bats.
Right now, this is my favourite destination and I can't wait to go back and do a bit of walking and photography of this beautiful island and it's people.
