Premise - Wrong adivise

When planning our stay on the islands we based our decisions on our travel agent's advise. WRONG!!!!

We decided to stay only 5 days on Mahè....

First impression

It was out first travel far away from home together and we were sooooo excited.

... and very ignorant, I may now add!

When the plane landed and we step on Seychelles soil and took a look around, we tought we have landed in Paradise! And that impression accompanied us trought all the days we stayed there.

Silly thought

I still laugh wehn I think about this episode....

We were in a car that was dring us to the first guesthouse and we saw a beautiful and rather tall plant.

"Look how big are these oleanders!" I said to my husband

Only after we discovered that they were not oleanders, but frangipani!!!
