A Sunday stroll around town
Everything here shuts down on a Sunday – kind of like Canada in the 1950s. It’s wonderful – the city is quite a distance from most of the tourist accommodation so the tourists aren’t strolling around and the locals know there’s nothing open so they stay away. One can almost walk down the middle of the main street and not have to worry about being run over and you can take your time gawking in the store windows looking at plastic buckets next to razor blades or anything the merchandiser can find to add to the window that might sell.
So this is a pictorial of a Sunday stroll through Victoria.
The official Seychelles logo with sailfish, turtle and coco de mer – Finis Coronat Opus (The end crowns the work)
Entrance to the main market – expensive but huge amounts of fresh tuna and snapper
80% are catholic here but can still here the call to prayer from the Mosque
The movie theatre – hasn’t yet been a movie we want to see but we keep hoping
The clock-tower roundabout in the centre of downtown
Gorgeous blue sky with frangipani flowers (plumeria rubra)
Being the tropics plants abound and quickly take over
A stroll down by the art centre
Land turtles abound
People to meet on Sundays
The yacht club is very close to downtown so returning to the club for lunch and reading of the local papers is a good idea on Sundays
Friday night party time

Love the street art. In quite a fe smaller towns here in Australia, shops close at noon on Saturday. I don’t like that they are all barracking to have Sunday shopping. Come on people, organize your lives a bit better, stay out of the shops. IF the banks would be open on Sunday, that would be OK though. Gorgeous pics!!
