These snails have become something of a plague on the islands.


Here are the fancy chicken.




Jackfruit or Pomme Jacko



Frangipani


Here we get a better look at them than otherwise, but it's still great to see them fly. They sail in the air, even now at midday and when they land in a tree there's usually already another one there and the greet each other more or less friendly, usually it sounds like less.




The baby Aldabra Giant Tortoises are kept seperate. The might be young and small for such a tortoise, as they get over 150 years old and over 300kg heavy, but they are huge to me.


A way to tell someone to go away in German is to tell them to go where the pepper grows. Well, we're there.





Corosol



lemon


Here's another one of those huge palm spiders, luckily they stay in their nets. (as far as we've seen in a total of 3 weeks on Seychelles with lots of those spiders everywhere)




tree of life



Lots of pepper again, they sell in in the little shop off the restaurant and use it for the food.



You see that there are these granite rocks everywhere. Here under teh cover of the palms they are less bizzarly shaped from the water.




Breadfruit and banyan



sugar cane



Next there's the banana plantation.







The fruitbats were here to feed.

We can even hear some from up there in the tree. Sometimes one can see an outline when they move or see their brown heads.

There's one flying very high.


These fruit are called coeur de beuf. The are kind of creamy inside.
