FESTIVAL TEMPO IN ST. LEU

SUNSET IN ST. GILLE

REGGAE FESTIVAL IN MARLA

MARLA IS A SMALL VILLAGE IN CIRQUE DU MAFATE (THE CIRQUE WHICH IS ONLY REACHABLE BY FOOT OR BY HELICOPTER), TO GET THERE WE NEEDED TO HIKE 7KM (4HOURS, MAINLY UPHILL).

ABOVE THE CLOUDS ON COL DU TAÏBIT (A MOUNTAIN PEAK JUST ABOVE 2000 METERS ABOVE SEALEVEL), IT TOOK ABOUT 2,5 HOURS TO CLIMB.

FIRST STOP WAS HOWEVER A LITTLE TEAHUT, WHO IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOREST SERVED TEA FROM HOMEGROWN HERBS IN THEIR FOREST GARDEN. A AWESOME STOP!

IT WASN’T MUCH OF A CONCERT, BUT EVERYONE WAS SINGING AND DANCING, AND THE ATMOSPHERE WERE LOVELY.

TRASH COLLECTION IN MARLA, AND TIME TO PACK UP AND HEAD BACK HOME… IT WAS A BIT OF A CHALLANGE TO CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN NEXT MORNING AFTER ALL THAT HIKE AND DANCING ALL NIGHT.
