Seychelles

Today is the end of our Eid al-Fitr party.  Eid al-Fitr celebrates the end of Ramadan.  We observed the holiday in the Seychelles with our gamer friends (also known as the Canadians).

It was a quick five hour flight to beautiful beaches on the island of Mahe.

Beautiful beach proof: (I'm no liar)

We toasted to our first time in the Southern hemisphere.

Our sabbatical included:
1. Treking the Dans Gallas trail




There was only a slight freakout when this comrade was blocking the path.

2. Inspection of the Botanical Gardens

3. Tea plantation exploration

4.  Traversing the Anse Major trail to discover a white sandy beach


5. Enjoying the sunset


6. Ample relaxation.  We are now calm and ready for a two day work week.

Happy birthday Grandma Fran.  I hope you feel extremely loved.  Happy birthday Bobby.  Jonathon says he wants to run the gauntlet again.
