On day two they bought a car…

Thanks to our friend Clarel who got us in connection with Shameer we now are the proud owners of Dayflower! It is a white Nissan Sunny from 1992 and is a beauty. She had a bit of a flat tire today, but after a refill of air at the gas station her tires are doing fine! 😊

One interesting point is that in Mauritius they drive on the left just like in the UK, but for whatever reason the controls on the steering wheel are reverse! So the wipers are still occasionally going when we are trying to signal that we are turning. I don’t understand the reason for this, but the Mauritius guys only say; it is from the French…. Yes, we know, but why? We wonder if it is the only place it is like this? I seem to remember that Australia and New Zealand was like UK? Do any of you know?
