Next morning, April 4. we were already at a port in Reunion, which is a French overseas department. As a curiosity I can tell you that here in this tiny island in the Indian Ocean, the new currency, then over 10 years ago, Euro was introduced as first in the world. I had booked an excursion to the capital of the island, St.Denis.
After arrival there I however as always did choose my own ways, leaving the group.
I was after getting map criscrossing the city of 120,000 inhabitants ( whole Reunion about 800,000 ). I fell in love with St.Denis. Here I could live the rest of my life !!It just was so symphatetic and nice. I then found a fine looking restaurant
" Roland Garros ", which was named after a local WWI pilot hero. His bronce statue of 1;1 size about was standing nearby. I ordered a boef de tartar, a great delicasy of mine, and got the best ever. Very pretty young lady served me, and I hoped I could have stayed longer. The whole thing with chips, salad and a garaffe of red wine
was all together 19,80 euros.
Goodbye St.Denis ! Maybe we'll see again ?
