Last full day in Guadeloupe March 5th

Woke up to pouring rain, but it had cleared up by the time we got on the bus at 830. Left Le Cosier - which means 'peliquin'- and there certainly are plenty of peliquins-- heading east along the coast line to Sainte-Anne, stopping at another market. Guys not too happy about that! Then headed right out to the furthest point east, beautiful area, with big rocks and huge waves. it was very busy, as its ash Wednesday, lots of the locals go there. From there we headed west thru the middle of the island through small hills and valleys-to have lunch, in a great little resturant. once again we drove through acres of sugar cane, would have loved to see it being harvested. They cut the cane around 8 inches off the ground, and it just starts to grow again,no need to replant. our final stop was at the historic Morne-a-l'eau cemetery- acres of cripts decorated with black and white tiles, to place their dead in. The man who owned the land and started the cemetery, as a private one, later opened it up to all classes, including the blacks. So some are not so fancy. Home for our last swim in the ocean. class="separator" style="clear: both;">
