My new husband and I woke up right at 4am. We had some coffee and a few pastries, which was brought up by room service. This was our last meal in New Zealand and we were really going to miss what we considered the most friendliest country we have ever visited. We checked out of our hotel and drove to drop our rental off. We anticipated a bus would then take us to the airport. Unfortunately, about 10 minutes later, we were waiting outside the car return drop off gate, but they were locked! We noticed there was a someone in the car on the other side of the gate trying to get out, and there was no one around. My husband circled around the return center several times, finally we asked this guy just strolling by where we might be able to drop off this car. He told us to go back up to the gate an honk our horn, he said that the security guard usually falls asleep in one of the cars.
So, we went back and honked our horn, but the only people that turned up were the other cars behind us also wanting to return their cars. One of them came up and asked us why we were honking our horn at a closed gate. He obviously wasn’t too bright. Eventually, the security guard did wake up and we got to return the car.
We flew to Durban and connected to Mauritius with out any further incident. We cleared customs in Mauritius around 5pm. We caught a ride to one of the best hotels Mauritius has and we were greeted by a very friendly staff and offered some cold scented towels to refresh ourselves. After we got to our room, we unpacked and headed to the pool! We then ate a great dinner at the hotels restaurant and we straight to our room afterwards, honeymoon still in process.
