Over the weekend we got our first ever order from a place called Reunion. It came from a regular customer who usually orders from France. We figured she must be on holiday, or have a summer home elsewhere.

We shipped the order yesterday, but I confess I had never heard of Reunion. I had to look it up. It looks like a tropical paradise.

Do you know, without looking it up, where Reunion is? :D

nope, but I'm on my way to check it out.

The tourist dept. is going to wonder why they're getting so many "hits".

La Reunion is an iland belonging politicaliy to France in the indian ocean.
Sort of south east of Africa next to Madagaskar and Mauritius.

Must be real hard to quilt there :mrgreen:

Somehow I knew it would be someone from Europe who would come up with the answer! Good job!

:thumbup:

Is this a popular tourist destination for European people?

hope the map shows up........

I dont know about La Reunion but Mauritius and the Sychelles sure are - if you have the $$$$ :lol:
I prefer the other side of the indian ocean: Sri Lanka and the Maledives
