We took the bus into the largest town on the island, Port Louis, for a bit of relief from the beach crowd. With the exception of a new waterfront development where we ate lunch, the rest of the town and island is dumpy. A Chinatown does exist from the Chinese laborers that settled here long ago but there wasn't much to it.
We're just waiting for a 45 minute afternoon flight to Reunion Island which is officially part of France. They use the euro as currency and speak entirely in French so it'll be seen if Ryan can communicate ten percent as good as Shauna could with Mandarin in China. Reunion doesn't have many beaches to speak of but there are three volcanoes that fill the interior so it'll be a different type of landscape as well.
