After our amazingly productive stint in Dominica, where we hiked and walked and swam our way around the island, Guadalupe has been our recovery island.
The first few days were a whirlwind of absolutely nothing, covered in late mornings, wandering around cities and villages and from cafe to cafe. I blame it on a mixture of laziness, bad weather and good food. Luckily being part of France we indulged in good coffee, pastries, and baguettes. Oh how I love sandwiches. And armed with string, color pencils, books, cards, scissors and markers we amply entertained ourselves until the sun came back out and we hit the (now) amazing beaches of Guadalupe.
Tomorrow we take the ferry to some outlying islands for our first bout of beach sleeping (on ultralight travel hammocks which we finally found!) and in 4 days we should be dirty enough to be impermiable to mosquitoes!! hoorah!
