Flashback to Guadeloupe.
2012 March 5
Although we didn’t find much open when we went for a walk around Basse Terre, Guadeloupe (remember, don’t visit towns on French islands on Sundays), we were able to get in to explore Fort Delgres. Here are a few pics from that excursion.

I would grab a book, sit on the grass by the wall and look out to the ocean all day……I would not get much reading done……I am not a history buff, but how can’t one just want to soak up the history of all there places you are traveling
We toured around another fort yesterday (pics to come). We LOVE exploring old ruins. Perhaps I should have been an archeologist?
Some blogs the entertainment value disappears…..You guys do a great job keeping me/us entertained….The pictures are such a tease for me and might be dangerouse to my future planning…..
Thanks for continuing to follow along, John!
When did you pose for the portrait/statue in the rings of standing stones?
Mike
They must have fabricated it after looking at some of my pics.
Did you get down as far as Vieux Fort? It sounds interesting but I can’t see it on google maps as it is blurred.
Mike
No, but of course we sailed by there though.
What was that crazy circle thing, Tropic Stonehenge?
Excellent question. I don’t have the answer.
It’s just a “Stone circle dedicated tο Louis Delgres” ( Google again )
When in doubt consult the oracle (Google).
You tweeted about a cat on the rocks the other day. So whatever became of that?? Will you do that as a daily post? Curious. Thx.
Yes.

Hi Mike,

Mainly about cruising… we are getting the boat ready and figured you would be the right persone to ask.
