14 April 2009 Left the kids sleeping, and went in for café &
croissants in town. There had been riots in Martinique & Guadeloupe a few
weeks earlier, and this was confirmed by a local who, when asked where a well
know yacht chandlers was, said it had been burned down during the manifestations. I asked if they had been
serious, the answer: “mais non, pas du
tout”. Bought a couple of slices of kingfish from the guy who had
caught them, the whole little fishing dock was quite atmospheric, with pelicans
eating the bits of fish thrown away. |
