Curieuse Island, Seychelles

Hello from the Ranger's Headquarters on Curieuse Island in the Seychelles. My job today was to create a spreadsheet to record rainfall here so I had access to a computer since I'm done. Thanks to a career of building spreadsheets and analyzing data.

A small group of volunteers comes to Curieuse every week. Others have been snorkeling and having a grand time, while I watch from the shore. I broke a pop bottle when restocking the frig last week and it exploded into my foot so I have 4 stitches and lots of memories of how I was carried to and from boats this week. We are on an island after all so much happens around the water.

We do all kinds of jobs here--computer work, planting mangrove seeds, painting signs to be posted around the island and fishing and coral monitoring. It's a nice place to be and the food is spectacular--creole barbeques each day. I'm off to one right now.

More after I visit LaDigue this weekend.
