29th May 2025...Widy Gregos Day!


Widy Gregos is the Vegan restaurant we discovered last year... Nestling in a forest of trees of all kinds, your vegan meal is presented in wooden bowls/plates , whilst you sit at a table outside, under an umbrella and banana, cherry and jungle trees of all sorts.


This tree is actually behind our apartment. It's a fire tree with massive pods, which drop noisily in the night!

Widy Gregos
EntrΓ©e is Gratin
 of Christophine


The main had 8-10 little "bites" of taste, the waiter informed us of everything that was on the plate....now I have no idea...but it was Deee.Licious πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‹ 

Behind us ants busily transported cut leaves back and forth....one in centre of this picture.

This notice at the side of the road, points you to a path (where I am!) which leads to the restaurant behind the house...through a jungle, on stepping stones.
Yet another MANGO tree!

28th May 2025.....A trip to Point des Chateaux


Normally stacks of leaves don't travel along the road!

Ripe for development?
Our first real look at
Point des Chateaux
Some of the beaches have been Sargassum-ed !

Sea purslane, planted to stabilise the sand.
Dave climbed the rock!
More plants...

28th May 2025... Lunch at a food truck..and home beach.



Looks a little bit stormy...but no rain
Our company for lunch two cows and 2 calves.
View of coconut palms...and piles of rotting Sargassum.
Although the piles of dead algae were not far from us, there was hardly a smell...it was probably all very dry.
This digger driver fortunately went on his lunch break just as we tucked into our lovely Poke Bowls...
Veggie for me, 
chicken for Dave.
Sargassum floating just off the beach
Chicken and her brood.

26th May 2025..... Surfing, kestrel, Buster and avocado πŸ₯‘


We have better pictures than this, just close to our terrace , this kestrel turns up to eat it's food....it's an American Kestrel and very pretty.


We thought Buster had followed us, we think we saw the same cat last year?

Taken with the camera.

Dave filming the surfers....they arrive around 5pm when the big waves come in.


See what he filmed!


We bought this avocado and we're still surprised how huge it was....at least 2 days eating for both of us!


Surfing taken with camera.
