So I had to post a little bit more today....
So I got back from lunch a little while ago with Alex. He suggested that we go to the one and only McDonalds here in Mauritius.
-There were a few things I had never seen before-such as a chicken mac as an alternative to a big mac
-I had a "royal cheeseburger"-somewhat of a quarter pounder
-Alex got more food than I did naturally-his large fry was the size of a medium in the states and his large drink was the size of a medium as well
-I had the perfect amount of food-my average sized burger and my "medium" aka small fry were more than substantial
-I noticed that the patty itself was more salty than the ones in the states
-No dollar menus to speak of
I went to the Mauritius Commercial Bank (MCB) to exchange some american dollars I still had for Mauritian rupees. The line was so long it kept wrapping around-I must have waited for about 20 minutes. The place I tried to go before, which I thought was a bank, was actually a cell phone company. I'm glad no one I know saw me....
I'm starting to learn my way around Port Louis now and its not as difficult as it used to be thank goodness-even with all of the one way streets
Hopefully this afternoon goes back quickly!
More later....

Okay you going to the cell phone company on accident is hilarious. You dealing in rupees is a close second. I'm picturing you arguing with a person at the market trying to get the price of a head of lettuce down to 600 rupees.
