Presenting the “Mauritian Eye”

Who hasn’t heard of the world famous “London’s Eye”?
Well, for those who have been to Champs de Mars since the last months, you have surely noticed the ‘sort of amusement park’ being set up…
In June 2009, I even blogged about it because I believe that there may be some money laundering(blanchiment d’argent) Â behind this. They are always building it up, pulling it down for X reason and they bring 10 persons to set it up again. Repeat X times a month.
I fail to understand how they got the money to bring this here and “maintain” it without any need to run it. Anyway, it is always fun to watch they doing all this cinema everyday while walking to and from my office ![]()

So, here’s the “to-be” Mauritian Eye (youtube video)…
