Back in the Real World

I spent one night in Reunion on my way to Mauritius and actually saw the BBC World News on satellite TV. I think this may have been a mistake. In the 4 weeks I have been without access to any media Boris Johnson has become PM, there were 3 mass shootings in the US in 24 hours and there are riots in Hong Kong. Now that I am in Mauritius there is TV but no news channels so maybe that is a good thing. On the up side I have a lovely room with all the mod cons on the south east coast of Mauritius over looking Lion Mountain. Not half bad compared to the bamboo roof huts with no hot water.
