Motorcycle in Mauritius

Generally, the motorization of developing countries advances by the following order.

(1) Bicycle......(2) Motorcycle ......(3) Car

The motorization in Mauritius has already approached the entrance to "Car", like the 1960s (30s-40s of the Showa era) in Japan.

However, the motorcycle is still an important way of transportation for many people.

Most motorcycles are displacement volume less than 125cc.

There are extremely few motorcycles of displacement volume more than 250cc, and they are possessions of the hobbies not life utilization.

About half of the motorcycle in Mauritius is SUZUKI and HAOJUE.

However, because all the motorcycles of SUZUKI in Mauritius are produced under license in a factory of Chinese HAOJUE, it may be quite said that half of the motorcycle is made in HAOJYUE.

Other than SUZUKI and HAOJUE, HONDA and YAMAHA are seen a lot, too.

How to eat breakfast

"How to eat breakfast" in hotel was changed from last week.


Until last week, I had cooked the food (bread, egg, etc.) in the kitchen of the hotel by myself and eaten.

But now, a breakfast is supplied by small restaurant "Padma Deli".

This small restaurant was opened by a manager of the hotel "Residence Padma" where I am staying in, therefore the name is "Padma Deli".


It is convenient for me that I can eat breakfast at the restaurant near the hotel.

However, because the manager often oversleep it is problem that a restaurant often closes!

....... In the yesterday morning,
....... because there was no other way I took him to the restaurant by my car!

Walk at the time of sunset

It is charming to take a walk in the Mauritian beach at the time of sunset.

Before sunset of Sunday, most boats return to the beach

At the time of sunset, there are a lot of people enjoying to walk in the beach.

....... Though it has noting to do with a sunset,

....... Today's lunch was Buriani which I bought with the food wagon near the hotel.

"Buriani" is always delicious without depending on a shop and food wagon.
On the other hand, the attached chili souse is different every shop.
This chili souse was fruity and tasty, probably a berry was included in a chili souse.
  

God created Mauritius first...

I am in the Mauritius island now , and am going to stay more than two months.

Mauritius island is a volcanic island on the Indian Ocean in the west of African Continent.

Mark Twain said following his visit to Mauritius island in 1897....
            ...... God created Mauritius first, and then paradise was copied it.
