Playing catch up

We are now sailing from Cape Town  back up north to the Caribbean. It's a strange feeling after all that we've done and been through as this is the last big leg and an ideal time to fill in what has happened over the past couple of months. 

Since Mauritius we moved on to Reunion where we had an amazing time. It is a beautiful island and being French has all that feeling of France and their culture and amenities. Whilst there we took a helicopter tour over the mountains inland and even dropped into a couple of volcanoes that have formed the island over the years. The pilot also took us through the valleys past massive water falls above us, this was one of the highlights

A few days later we took a guided tour canyoning which was full on and one of the best things I've done. We started off high up in the mountains and gradually made our way through water cut gorges and canyons by climbing, abseiling, zip lining and sliding down waterfalls. 

It was a hard, physical day and brilliant. 

All in Reunion was an amazing place and somewhere I'd highly recommend that I think goes a bit unnoticed by the rest of the world.

Next on to Durban, South Africa
