IslandInfo-Mauritius in your hands. Issue 17

April 2, 2009 - PRLog -- “She won our hearts the arts she loved
Is painting pictures for free
When she was done she hung them up
For all the children to see”*

April is here again but, fortunately in Mauritius, the showers aren’t. Unless you happen to live in Curepipe of course, which seems to have April showers all year around!
In this edition of Islandinfo we feature Elie Bernager in our Lifestyle section. A fantastic photographer from Paris, he won’t paint for free but he will provide couples getting married in Mauritius with the best photographs of the occasion that you can imagine. If you are coming all the way to Mauritius to get married you want the best. You want Elie.
Our Discovery section this month is all about La Vanille Reserve de Mascareignes. A wonderful park hidden away in the south of Mauritius, you will be delighted by Giant tortoises, crocodiles, monkeys and many other animals. The insect collection, which numbers in the tens of thousands, is absolutely fascinating and will make you thankful that the denizens are frozen in time behind glass and not crawling all over your body!
Finally, April the twelfth is Easter for those who follow the Western Christianity of Rome. As well as the traditional chocolate eggs, why not try some of the recipes featured in the MyMonth section? Have fun making them with the kids and then later on eat them too. The recipes that is, not the kids. This is supposed to be a religious festival!
