Self-Portrait from life
Hey guys, I havent posted in this forum for a good while, but there is some excellent work here now. Those of you I recognize have grown quite a bit over the last few months. I am 17, a senior in high school(graduating a year early, thank jehovah!), and I take private lessons from a painter here in Bryan, TX. I finished this drawing yesterday; its all charcoal and I put about 2 and a half hours into it. What do you think?
This one looks the most like me:
This is another I finished about two weeks ago:
45 minutes
and an unfinished PS sketch for kicks:

Designed to focus on environmental learning activities, the Visitor Activity Center is a remarkable building that hosts an open space designed for gathering, dining, meetings, lectures.
A key building feature is the use of reused, recycled or recyclable materials. Materials were selected that were durable, had long life spans, required little maintenance and had a low impact on the environment. Another building feature is the shingle cladding of the north façade seen as one approaches the building. These shingles, cut on site from old, discarded tires reclaimed from a nearby river, park grounds and other local sources, directly challenge users to think about environmental responsibility.The Architect detailed how the Visitor Activity Center is focused on sustainable design, through Careful siting and orientation, thorough research, selection of materials, analysis and design of building systems.
Site PlanFloor Plan
In winter, building mass minimizes impact of prevailing winter winds. South-facing fenestration with long east/west orientation maximizes heat gain. The tinted thermal mass concrete slab provides passive solar heat. Roof profile maximizes solar penetration. In summer, south roof overhang and East/west porches minimizes solar penetration. Low operable windows on east and west sides draw in cool air from shaded porches. High operable windows on the south elevation exhaust warm air from the building. Glazed south, east and west faces of the main space provide abundant natural daylight and connect users to the forest beyond.The Visitor Activity Center is one of three projects that were awarded the 2009 CAE Educational Facility Design Award in the Excellence category. As explained by the architects: "It was designed to reflect its non-profit and governmental sponsor's commitment to the ideals of environmental stewardship".

Sigh. I still haven't finished reporting on that really interesting four-hour Friday afternoon tour of Chicago. But I'm going to try to do so now.
Chicago is closely associated with Frank Lloyd Wright, whose work I've always loved. So it was fun, on this tour, to drive by the Robie House (see above) and the Heller House (see below).
Then we went to the University of Chicago. This was a big deal for me. Despite my many travels all over the world, I've only been to the University of Chicago once before, and that was decades ago.
Our tour on Friday took us past the building where business and economics are taught.
Way back before my mission — during, I think, the summer break after my freshman year in college — I visited Chicago with my parents. I was, at that time, seriously thinking about studying economics in graduate school, and, for me, the only place to do graduate work in economics was Milton Friedman's University of Chicago. This was the home of the "Chicago School," founded by Frank McKnight and carried on by such soon-to-be Nobel laureates as Friedman and George Stigler.
So I had wanted to visit the Chicago campus, and my parents obliged me. But, approaching campus from (as I recall) the west, we drove through a really, really rough area. At every red light, young men came out and rocked our car, yelling insults at "whitey." (I was already beginning to lose my enthusiasm for Chicago at that point.) Then, we pulled up in front of Rockefeller Chapel. It was about 1 PM on a beautiful, sunny day. But, before I could walk over to see the Chapel, a man came running toward us, screaming "Don't leave your car! Don't leave your car! They're stealing car batteries!" His battery, in fact, had been stolen, and, as we drove him to a gas station to try to get a new one, we counted seven cars with their hoods up. It was broad daylight. I lost any and all interest in coming to the University of Chicago.
This time, though, I got to go into the Chapel. I understand that security is enormously improved at the University of Chicago, that crime has been very much reduced. Had my visit back then been like my visit on Friday, I might — who knows? — have gone into economics.
We drove a little bit more around campus. The Chapel sits — and my parents and I parked — on what used to be the Midway of the 1893 Columbian Exposition, one of the pivotal events in Chicago's history. (The nickname "Windy City" comes not from its weather but from the complaints of its disappointed rivals in New York about the vocal boosters and politicians who had managed to win the Exposition away from New York for their town.) The world's very first Ferris wheel stood thirty-two stories high on the Midway.
We drove past the site, then under the University of Chicago Stagg Field football bleachers, where, on 2 December 1942, Enrico Fermi first split the atom.
My father, assigned by the Army (it was during World War Two), was studying German at the University of Chicago during this time, somewhere near Stagg Field. He always told me that he and his fellow students knew that something hush-hush was going on but had no idea what it was and certainly couldn't have imagined its world-historical significance.
Leaving the University of Chicago, we went out to Lake Michigan.
And then we strolled through Millennium Park, home of the "Cloud Gateway," or whatever its official title is. Locals call it, simply, "The Bean":
Our guide told us that Chicago politicians (including the fabled, enormously powerful, and eventually criminally-convicted Democratic congressman Dan Rostenkowski) managed to get Millennium Park built entirely with federal money: Locals didn't pay a dime.
This, I confess, irritated me. Why should farmers in Kansas, factory workers in Cincinnati, accountants in Oregon, and school teachers in South Carolina be obliged to pay for a park in Chicago, while residents of Chicago pay absolutely nothing? Surely, if there's anything local at all, it is and ought to be a city park.
It's rather like a co-pay with insurance. If cost and benefit are completely separate, if there's no relationship between them, those who benefit will be only too happy to impose unlimited costs on those who pay for their benefits. Normal market discipline has been removed. Having at least a little bit of "skin in the game" is essential for efficiency, to say nothing of simple justice.

The Kobe was solid last night. I felt stupid trying to lob against you, because your overheads are guaranteed point winners.
I gotta say I enjoyed playing last night. Although I am not a big fan of playing doubles, its good to see doubles bringing out everyone's strengths.
JRK- serving is always a strong point for you, but I really think just doubles in general is a good game for you. You have great touch at net, aforementioned solid overheads are money, you know how to cut off volleys and close the net, and its tough to get the ball past you.
JRS- your serves seemed to have improved alot. There is just this consistent dipping spin on every serve that curves the ball in at the last moment it seems everytime. Groundies its tough to judge in doubles, but I know you hit that one backhand winner (when my back was turned), and I remember commenting on how smart you were playing your forehand. But in general you are just so solid on everything- I noticed that I intentionally tried to avoid hitting to you unless I had a sitter.
DVI- I have to say I felt the most pressure playing against you in doubles. Serve- not the biggest on the court, but hard to return well. Groundies- seem to take the biggest hop out of the strike zone, so once again harder to control hitting against them. Volleys- couple shanks that I could not read where the ball was supposed to be heading
. Get yourself to a Physical Therapist to rehab the knee, and toss the ball more into the court, and I think alot of your problems solve themselves.
Schmad: I still maintain that technically you are not a 3.0. You have the capability to hit some unexpected beauties that just scream past the opposition. The only problem I noticed was that I felt my pulse racing everytime I would see you wind up for one of those- for fear of not knowing what the outcome is going to be. If you kind of find your safe range where you don't feel the need to say go for huge swings on sitter volleys right above the net for example then your rating jumps to 4.0 right away. Your 3/4 pace balls would be just as effective as your full swinging shots, and you would be more consistent with them. Its also a shame you had to play with me, because I definitely wasn't holding up my side of the doubles bargain yesterday.
Thanks again for playing guys.

Students say that in order to find people using drugs at Virginia Tech, you have to go looking for them. While drug use does happen, it's not very visible around campus. If students are going to use a substance, it's usually alcohol or caffeine. The most commonly heard-about drug being used around campus is marijuana. Most students at Tech don't encounter any drug use at parties or on campus. Students say that if you want to avoid drugs, it is very easy to do; it is as simple as picking who you want to hang out with. Virginia Tech has a "zero tolerance" rule when it comes to drugs, so if you are caught using drugs, it is almost guaranteed you'll be suspended—if not expelled.
Alcohol, caffeine, and tobacco are the most popular substances on campus, while illegal drugs are harder to find. Drugs are definitely around the University, but not blatantly so. Virginia Tech has strict policies against the use of illegal drugs, and students face harsh penalties if caught. There is, inevitably, some drug activity at Tech, but most students agree that avoiding drugs is almost easier than finding them.

Newsletter - Winter 2010
Message from OK Board President
2009 has been a challenging year for most small businesses and the OK 5 team is no exception. Some of our businesses have grown slightly, some have only maintained and a few have felt the loss of significant revenues. All of us are still together however, and there's one primary reason why: We've managed the heck out of our expenses.
It's amazing how much a small business can cut expenses when it puts its mind to it. As a matter of fact it begs the question, if we can cut expenses when our backs are to the wall, why can't we do the same thing when times are good? Imagine how much more profitable we'd be. Imagine how much more money we could stash away to get us through the down times.
My hope for 2010 and forward? That everlasting expense control is a lesson all OK members retain for many years to come.

Born in Egypt to Italian parents, he spent his childhood in Milan. From the age of 15 he has lived in Mexico City where he has written — in Spanish — three books of poetry, Lotes baldíos (which won the 1995 'Carlos Pellicer Prize'), De lunes todo el año (which won the 'Aguascalientes National Prize for Poetry' in 1991) and Alguien de lava; a book of prose, Caja de herramientas (1989), three collections of short stories, La lenta furia (1989), La vida ordenada (2000) and Grieta de fatiga (which won the 'Antonin Artaud Prize' in 2006), and two books of essays, El viaje y la enfermedad (1984) and Los pastores sin ovejas (1996). He has also written a book for children, Cuando las panteras no eran negras, which won the 'White Raven Prize' in 1997 and has translated from his mother tongue — Italian — numerous stories, poetry, essays and children's books. In 1998, he took part in a DAAD artists programme in Berlin. He wrote the story series También Berlín se olvida about this experience. In 2005 Galaxia Gutenberg published his translation of the complete poetry of Eugenio Montale.

Some of my photos are processed to include a narrow border and headline on the bottom, that can be fitted on a mount to be exposed or not. if anyone would like one without the border, just email me. For UK/EU prices,
visit my website on the link above, for a selection of prints in stock or to order any other image www.bcashphotography.com. But also, Fine Art America are now offering certain items direct from the UK!
Most images are from a Canon 5D MII or Canon 40D, so larger size images print as crisp as smaller ones. The infrared images are from the 40D, having had the internal infrared filter removed. Some astro images are from the converted 40D as well. I use Lee filters for effects 'on' camera.
Am available for commission work, portfolio shoots and commercial shoots, to include prints if needed. Digital images are also available with rights-managed or exclusive use for commercial purposes.
Anything anyone would like to know or anything else just ask! Thanks for looking, Beverly

Wildfire still looms over S. Calif. mountain town
IDYLLWILD, Calif. Longtime resident Dave Jones was back in his Southern California home a day after evacuating, but remained ready to leave as a huge wildfire fire threatened to top a ridge near his mostly empty mountain town.
The walls were bare in the home where he's lived for the past 40 years after the 64-year-old and his wife stowed the valuable mementos, along with more practical items, like clothes, jewelry, medicines and the computer hard drive before heading to their son's home in nearby Hemet.
"The fire came right up by the ridge yesterday afternoon, gave everybody a pretty good scare that it was going to come down the hill," Jones said Thursday night.
The last time he evacuated for a fire it was 1997, and he stayed away for four days. Jones said he considered the order he got Wednesday "a light evacuation" and wasn't afraid because he knows of a controlled dirt road to use as "an escape route" if fire does come down that ridge.
Forest Service spokesman John Miller said firefighters had made "great progress" by late Thursday night given the tough conditions and terrain, and evacuations were called off for a small handful of the thousands under orders to leave.
But the 35-square-mile blaze remained just 15 percent contained and had been growing in an atypical manner. The majority of the 3,300 fire fighters are on the western flank of the fire, near Idyllwild.
"Usually it cools down at night and we get more humidity. That hasn't happened," said Tina Rose, a spokeswoman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. "It's been burning like it's daytime for 72 hours in a row."
Temperatures were expected to dip into the 60s overnight before creeping up into the 80s on Friday.
"What we're concerned about is what you see right here," said U.S Forest Service Fire Chief Jeanne Pincha-Tulley, pointing to a hazy sky. "When you get a column that puts out this much smoke, embers get into the column and can drop anywhere."
She added the column was expected to go right over Idyllwild for the next two days. While authorities said only 5 percent of the town rebuffed evacuating, they cautioned they might not be able to help those who remain if conditions worsen.
"We cannot guarantee your safety if the fire runs into town," Idyllwild Fire Protection District Chief Patrick Reitz said.
The 22,800-acre fire spread in three directions through thick brush and trees. Roughly 4,000 houses, condos, cabins and several hotels in Idyllwild and surrounding communities were threatened. Fire crews struggled to carve fire lines around the town to block the towering flames.
Authorities said the fire was "human-caused" but they wouldn't say whether it was accidental or intentional. There have been no reports of any injuries.
Idyllwild, the small town on the other side of the mountains that tower over the desert community of Palm Springs is known for the arts and is surrounded by national forest popular with hikers and flanked by two large rocks that are favorites for climbers. Popular campgrounds, hiking trails and a 30-mile section of the Pacific Crest Trail that runs 2,650 miles from the Mexican border to Canada were closed.

Personalized Decision Support in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Current Evidence and Future Directions

The management of type 2 diabetes comprises a complex series of medical decisions regarding goals of care, self-care behaviors, and medical treatments. The quality of these medical decisions is critical to determining whether an individual diabetes patient is treated appropriately, overtreated, or undertreated. It is hypothesized that the quality of these medical decisions can be enhanced by personalized decision support tools that summarize patient clinical characteristics, treatment preferences, and ancillary data at the point of care. We describe the current state of personalized diabetes decision support on the basis of 13 recently described tools. Three tools provided support for personalized decisions based on preferences, while the remaining 10 provided support for treatment decisions designed to achieve standard diabetes goals. For the tools that supported personalized decisions, patient participation in medical decisions improved.

President Obama's remarks at Newtown prayer vigil
As a community, you've inspired us, Newtown. In the face of indescribable violence, in the face of unconscionable evil, you've looked out for each other, and you've cared for one another, and you've loved one another. This is how Newtown will be remembered. And with time, and God's grace, that love will see you through.
But we, as a nation, we are left with some hard questions. Someone once described the joy and anxiety of parenthood as the equivalent of having your heart outside of your body all the time, walking around. With their very first cry, this most precious, vital part of ourselves - our child - is suddenly exposed to the world, to possible mishap or malice. And every parent knows there is nothing we will not do to shield our children from harm. And yet, we also know that with that child's very first step, and each step after that, they are separating from us; that we won't - that we can't always be there for them. They'll suffer sickness and setbacks and broken hearts and disappointments. And we learn that our most important job is to give them what they need to become self-reliant and capable and resilient, ready to face the world without fear.
And we know we can't do this by ourselves. It comes as a shock at a certain point where you realize, no matter how much you love these kids, you can't do it by yourself. That this job of keeping our children safe, and teaching them well, is something we can only do together, with the help of friends and neighbors, the help of a community, and the help of a nation. And in that way, we come to realize that we bear a responsibility for every child because we're counting on everybody else to help look after ours; that we're all parents; that they're all our children.
This is our first task - caring for our children. It's our first job. If we don't get that right, we don't get anything right. That's how, as a society, we will be judged.
And by that measure, can we truly say, as a nation, that we are meeting our obligations? Can we honestly say that we're doing enough to keep our children - all of them - safe from harm? Can we claim, as a nation, that we're all together there, letting them know that they are loved, and teaching them to love in return? Can we say that we're truly doing enough to give all the children of this country the chance they deserve to live out their lives in happiness and with purpose?
I've been reflecting on this the last few days, and if we're honest with ourselves, the answer is no. We're not doing enough. And we will have to change.
Since I've been President, this is the fourth time we have come together to comfort a grieving community torn apart by a mass shooting. The fourth time we've hugged survivors. The fourth time we've consoled the families of victims. And in between, there have been an endless series of deadly shootings across the country, almost daily reports of victims, many of them children, in small towns and big cities all across America - victims whose - much of the time, their only fault was being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The house was beautiful and provided a great framework for an exciting weekend. Nice view of the Pacific and stunning sunsets from the balcony. The rooms are huge and easily accommodated our large group of 12. Multiple beds in each room insured everyone got their own bed. The main living space is perfect for gatherings or parties.

Computer software, or just software, is a collection of computer programs and related data that provide the instructions telling a computer what to do and how to do it. We can also say software refers to one or more computer programs and data held in the storage of the computer for some purposes. In other words software is a set of programs, procedures, algorithms and its documentation. Program software performs the function of the program it implements, either by directly providing instructions to the computer hardware or by serving as input to another piece of software. The term was coined to contrast to the old term hardware (meaning physical devices). In contrast to hardware, software is intangible, meaning it "cannot be touched" (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Software)

Wayland Can Now Use Gallium3D Software Rendering
Besides the obvious requirements and demands of needing to design a display server that can fully replace the needs of the long-standing X Server, and making all the tool-kits and major software support running natively on Wayland, another inhibitor to Wayland's adoption has been its graphics driver requirements. In particular, Wayland requires kernel mode-setting, EGL (in place of a DRI2 requirement), in-kernel memory management (GEM), and 3D acceleration.

Prominent expert on death penalty cases will bolster defense effort in Boston attack
Clarke's clients have included the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski; Susan Smith, who drowned her two children; Centennial Olympic Park bomber Eric Rudolph; and most recently Tucson, Ariz., shooter Jared Loughner. All received life sentences instead of the death penalty.
Clarke has rarely spoken publicly about her work and did not return a call seeking comment Monday. However, at a speech Friday at a legal conference in Los Angeles, she talked about how she had been "sucked into the black hole, the vortex" of death penalty cases 18 years ago when she represented Smith.
"I got a dose of understanding human behavior, and I learned what the death penalty does to us," she said. "I don't think it's a secret that I oppose the death penalty."
Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz said the decision to put Clarke on the defense team shows "they are going to litigate hard against the death penalty."

Just a day after the DCCC issued a 250 word email mentioning the "War on Women" four times and just two days after Hillary Clinton warned women of "extremists" in America looking to take away their rights, TIME Magazine is out with a cover story all about women. The cover story isn't about how women are oppressed in America, but about how women are now out earning men and bringing home the bacon.
"Women are overtaking men as America's breadwinners."
War on women = non-existent.

It's a new term you'll have to learn when it comes to tablet technology: AMOLED. It stands for active-matrix organic light-emitting diodes.
What it comes down to is better looking graphics and Samsung says its new wave of tablets will include the feature. The technology has been used in smartphones by Samsung and other manufacturers. But until now, tablets haven't used them because AMOLED screens are more difficult to make. The Samsung tablets with enhanced graphics will be available starting next month with the release of the Galaxy Tab S.
Samsung says there will be two models one with an 8.4-inch screen and another with a 10.5 inch diagonal screen.

These seem important aspects of networking to remember when attempting to receive support; that it is, above all, necessitates a balance of both giving and taking. Following through with connections also insures that others will not only remember you, but also that you are available for a returnable favor. I haven't really been introduced to virtual networking; needless to say, I will be trying http://www.LinkedIn.com.

We aren't entirely sure what's stranger about this story - that a man actually sold a vital piece of his manhood for a car, or that he did it for a Nissan 370Z. That's not to discredit the trusty Fairlady, a car we generally like, but that if we were to do what Mark Parisi did and sell one of his testicles to science, we'd be asking for a helluva lot more than $35,000.

Whimsical Idea Expands To Chinese Food Mission
By editor
Originally published on Tue April 23, 2013 12:05 pm
Good morning, I'm David Greene.
It was just a whimsical idea back in the '70s. David Chan and his co-workers decided to try every Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood. Now, the 64-year-old Los Angeles attorney has visited more than 6,000 Chinese eateries around the world. The L.A. Times says he once hit 300 restaurants in a single year. You'll find Chan using a fork. He's not a chopsticks guy.
He often gives advice to restaurant critics. Chan says he's always just been a collector - stamps, records - now dumplings.

Vi 4 vuxna och 2 tonåringar.Var 13 nätter i denna fantasiska villa
som ligger i mycket lungt villaområde.
Paret Marie-Christine och Paris är helt fantastiska.Paris såg till att vi hade transport från och till flygplatsen även ordnade han hyrbil.
Inte förglömma Dorine husan och hennes formidabla matlagning.
Hon gjorde 8 middagar till allas fulla belåtenhet.
Detta gjorde att våra fruar också fick mer semester.
Att varje morgon promenera från villan till havet(ta vägen åt vänster) och uppleva dess krafter är något man aldrig glömmer.
En semester i Villa Pampa.:Det rekommenderas trots flygresan från Skellefteå tog 25 timmar med mellanlandningar.
Bosse,Stina,Agneta,Karl-Henrik,Emil och Philip
We spent 3 glorious weeks in Villa Pampas in October 2014. Paris met us on arrival, having organised a taxi to collect us from the airport. The villa was pure luxury and had everything we needed for our holiday to be a success. We dined out and catered for ourselves (well stocked supermarket close by), but the wonderful Dorine also cooked some of her very tasty creole dishes and brought us fresh mangos from her garden daily! We hired a car during our stay which Paris kindly arranged for us at a very reasonable rate and spent time exploring the island. The Mauritian people are very welcoming, kind and helpful. We were spoilt for choice with the beaches as they all had miles of lovely soft white sands and the most spectacular turquoise sea imaginable. We had only 1 regret and that was that the holiday had to come to an end. We would highly recommend this villa and we hope to return again in the future.
Many thanks Paris, Marie Christine and Dorine
What's not to like!!!!
We had a wonderful 3-week stay at villa Pampas. The villa is located in a nice and quiet neighbourhood in Albion. The house is comfortably decorated and spacious. There is a fantastic sunlounger down the garden, next to the swimming pool. The supermarket and beach are on walking distance. Six days a week we had the help of Dorine to clean our house and prepare some delicious Creole suppers. Dorine is a fantastic help! She is very kind, helpful and a wonderful cook who prepared everyday a different recipe which she proudly explained to us!
It is not possible to wish for a better host than Marie-Christine. She is a warm person who proudly takes care of her guests. Together with Paris they responded quickly to our questions during our stay and solved these in seconds. We felt very welcome and we will surely come back!
Make sure to visit l'Escale Creole, Marie-Christines restaurant in Moka, for an unique Creole experience.
Thanks so much Marie-Christine for nice meeting and villa! We were pleased to stay there! The furniture , garden and atmosphere in the villa are cozy and pleasant!
Thanks Dorine for creol food! We very like her dishes: rise, fish, shrimps, samosa and salad
The nearest shop is Dodo and the restaurant is La Murene!
We come to restaurant our last evening . We took fresh fish with salad and dessert!The price in restaurant is cheap but quality is great!
The nearest beach is calm and we was going there almost every day! There are a lot of fish in the ocean!
It was good to take the car and was driving around and go to the nearest island Gabriel and Il aux Cerf!
We liked mauritius and want to come back;)

This was a very nice and unusual house built inside a concrete dome. The accoustics are very interesting, especially when our daughter was practicing her violin upstairs. The photos are accurate! The living area is spacious and uncluttered. The yard is walled and secure and the pool, although a bit small, is completely private and refreshing. (The pool man cleans it regularly.) The house is about a 250 meter stroll to the public beach and along the way you will find a small supermarket (Dodo), a souvenir shop, and a small but very good restaurant (try the Octopus salad or any fresh fish).
The hosts of Villa Pampas, Pierre and Marie-Christine, are very helpful, friendly and interesting but they are not intrusive and they give you plenty of privacy. They live about half an hour away but they are accessible by phone.
They are building a similar house next door, although it is a bit larger and it is supposed to be ready in the fall.
The public beach is very uncrowded, although our visit was in the Mauritian winter. I wish that we had started going to the beach sooner because it was a very nice place to pass the time. You can even fish off of the shore.
The house keeper comes in 6 days per week to clean up everything and for very little money, she will cook a Mauritian meal. Very tasty with interesting Creole flavours.
We often jogged through the neighbourhood in the mornings and along the way, we would stop at the bakery for fresh bread and pastries.
Mauritius is a friendly, safe place that does not have the feeling of desperation that is often evident in some African countries. Although the signs and television are in French (or Creole), everyone speaks enough english to communicate. If you can speak some French, they will understand you, but you probably won't understand their Creole, which is a good reason to use english if your are not a francophone. But communication is not a problem because almost everyone is friendly and understands enough english to understand whatever you want.
I have already recommended this place to some of my friends. I would stay her again if I was returning to Mauriitius.
This place is amazing! How lucky were we to stay there for 6 weeks. Everything was organzed for us: transfer, car rental, even little amount of food! The house is barely new, the garden is wonderful, the pool is always clean. We even had a chance to pick up the bananas right from the garden. Location couldn't be more perfect. 5 minutes walk to a calm clean beach, no people there, maybe several couples. Everything is taken care of: cleaning, pool, garden, even cooking, if you like. The place is very quiet, ideal for staying with children. A small restaurant (Le Murene) with wonderful food and nice staff just 5 minutes away. Fresh bakery in the morning in Dodo shop(5 min). And don't miss the chance to swim with dolpins! There's a boat that leaves from Albion beach, which means you don't have to go early to Tamarin, which is 40 minutes drive. Paris, Marie-Christine, We want to thank you for making a dream vacation for us. It could not be better from ANY point of view. Natasha, Russia

We want to thank you for making a dream vacation for us. It could not be better from ANY point of view.
Albion is located on the West coast of Mauritius, at around 8Km from Flic en Flac, the nearest developed seaside resort where you may find several beaches, restaurants, commercial centers, bars, clubs, casino, etc.
The west coast is also very rich in places to go and activities such as golf, fishing, big game fishing, diving, snorkeling, surfing, kite surfing, swim with the dolphins, walk with the lions, day out on catamaran, picnic on nearby islets, quad ride, hiking, visit of natural parcs, typical villages, coloured earth, rhumerie, shopping, etc.
The West coast is famous for the beauty of its sunsets and appreciated for its excellent climate, because it is protected from the trade winds.
Access to Albion and Villa Pampas is very rapid and convenient : 30 minutes from Port-Louis, the capital, 20 minutes from Rose-Hill, the nearest commercial and residential town, 10 minutes from Cascavelle, the nearest commercial centre, 15 minutes from Flic-en-Flac, the nearest developed seaside resort. A map of Mauritius will be included in our welcome kit and we will provide you in advance with a plan and indications as to how to reach Villa Pampas if required.
