Colourful Planet Earth – Farbige Erde

 

Mother Earth at her most colourful. These pictures were taken on the island of Mauritius (Chamarel, Black River District), where basalt outcrops with varied mineralizations weather into motherly and colourful images.

  1. Hey Dad,

    I was just looking at some interesting places to go in the world with one of my friends last night and this was one of them, and I was telling him about how you had gone to Mauritius, and then I looked here today and shizam, what a coincidence!

    Hope all is well in Europe,

    1. Dear Flurin,
      My travel experiences from the trip to Mauritius were indeed inspiring and lasting. Another aspect of life in Mauritius, more from the cultural impressions, I was commenting on in the previous blog entry about “tolerance” (https://ofradix.net/2013/04/06/toleranz-tolerance/). For more pictures and stories from the islands of Mauritius and Rodrigues, see: https://picasaweb.google.com/OfarimBenHadji/MauritiusAndRodriguesIsland2010

      Things are well in Europe. The inward journey is as interesting and sometimes exhausting as traveling to remote places on this planet!
