Stop Lagging Behind - How to Combat Jet Lag - Sleep Well to Travel Well!
To get a step ahead of jet lag, first get a good night’s sleep before your flight. Go to bed nice and early and sober! If you stay up late the night before enjoying a wild bon-voyage party, the next day your body will be more susceptible to jet lag’s nasty side.
Stay Hydrated During the Flight
Watching what you drink continues during the flight, as you should stay away from alcohol and caffeine. Instead, aim for plenty of water with occasional fruit juices to fight the dehydrating effects of long flights. Don’t be afraid to ding that flight attendant buzzer and ask for another bottle of water. Without caffeine in your system, it will be easier to sleep as much as you can during the flight. The more hydrated, better-rested your body is, the better it will handle jet lag.
Stretch Often
To keep your body in peak condition while seated for hours in a pressurized cabin, you’ll need to stretch. Stretch your toes and you ankles. Reach you hands to the ceiling and roll your shoulders. Get up to stretch your legs. All of these actions keep your blood flowing.
Change All Your Clocks
 During the flight, either the captain will tell you the local time at your destination or you’ll see it on your personal display screen. When this happens, don’t immediately think how different the new time is from your home time zone. Instead, set both your wristwatch and your mind’s clock to the new time to mentally prepare for the change.
Soak in the Sun
Your goal on the first day of your arrival is to stay awake until an early, local bedtime. You’ll only delay jet lag by taking a three-hour nap in the middle of the day. To stay up until nighttime, go for long walks in the sun without sunglasses to inhibit the production of sleep-causing melatonin.

Giving You Another Perspective On Seychelles!
Watch Out Above!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good morning all! Last Sunday, March 22nd 2009, while on the topic of bananas I made a quick mention of the 'flying fox' of the islands. 
Well this Sunday morning, 05:51hrs, as the sun rises, in the sky high above our island 'fying foxes' or the fruit bat, circles above, making their way back to their resting places after a long evening of dining out and tropical mischief.
Fruits mostly, as their name suggests, in the tree at night you can hear them feeding on the mango or some other tropical delight. Or just above the roof top in the night sky, hear them as they fly by. Be warned sometimes you will hear a crash on a nearby roof. No not a falling bat but rather some fruit or a mango falling from the clutches of one of these beautiful mammals.
Another warning as well for you. For on the rare occasion a local or a visitor has been 'annointed' or 'blessed' with what drops from the bat. And what drops is not from the mouth but rather from the opposite end! A rare occurence indeed. If it is to happen to you however do consider yourself 'lucky' and do immediately go out and buy that lottery ticket before the 'good luck' wears off!
I have been witness to such an occurence. Many years back indeed, which confirms the rarity of the event, for back on the islands I too had much experience during the night and had this been something frequent I would have fallen 'victim' to one splattering as well!(Another story another blog about my 'night time' adventures)Anyway we were gathered as a family enjoying good talk, tasty wine, and a delicious meal at a restaurant which at the time was called 'Winnie's Wagon Wheel' located at La Louise, on the way to La Misere.
Sitting outside little did we realise that 'luck' was about to call & strike one among us and with a loud 'splash'! And it did right on the person's head did it land. Surprise was soon replaced with laughter I recall by all except that most 'lucky' person among us who received the 'blessings'. After a clean up in the lavatory he too came to the see his 'good fortune' and laughed it off.
All the while sitting outside with thousands of bats above, who would have guessed what was to befall us? Not I and not he apparently.
The Seychelles Flying Fox is indeed a welcome sight in the early evening sky as it glides above, in hundreds, flocked together as they make their way to dine. In the morning time as well with the warming sun, they make their way home to rest for the day.
View the Seychelles Flying Fox at garden's through out the islands. As well take a visit to the Botanical Garden at Mont Fleuri for an upclose encounter.
The Seychelles Islands. So much to do, see and experience. Please do! |

In August 2008 on a trip back to the Seychelles it was a pleasure to have met the key players from Creole Travel Services. Following an 'online intro' by Mr. Alain St. Ange of the SHTA, a meeting was organised with several destination management companies, among them Creole Travel Services.
Following our introduction with CTS and presenting our business plan and approach, we were happy to note that CTS would be quite happy to develop a relationship with us as we roll the business out!
Creole Travel Services is an excellent company to be partnered with and we know that over the coming months as you our customer looks for something new and fresh, that you will consider the Seychelles Islands. If you do we will only be too happy to guide you along the way.
We know the Seychelles Islands. Would you like to?
