Guadeloupe Zoo - Land of Animals and Suspension Bridges

We finally found a taxi to take us to the zoo. And what a day or was! We were to meet our taxi at 10:00, but it began raining early in the morning. It was pouring at 10:15. I texted the driver, telling him that we had to cancel because we couldn't get to the dock. He said he would wait. Finally at about 10:45, there was a quick break in the weather, so we hoped on the dinghy and raced to the dock. Ten minutes later we were in the dry van and on our way. It was beautiful and

We bounced between the waves, through hot and cold water, mixing around us. We thoroughly enjo

We spent a week in Malendure, meeting new friends, having lots of sundowners and getting much walking in. There were three grocery stores within a mile of the dinghy dock. We made several trips down there and lugged everything back (mostly Tim). We did several loads of laundry. Tim went snorkeling with a friend, while I waited on the boat. I had an ear infection, so I couldn't snorkel. One evening we were invited to go to shore with a group. We ended up at a bar/restaurant

Jardin Botanique, a Beautiful Paradise

We found out that there was a van that would pick us up and take us to the Botanical Garden. I knew that I saw a sign somewhere... Luckily, we stumbled upon the sign with the phone number for pickup. So, we called. They had to find someone who spoke English. We waited, then got cut off. We called again. They found someone to talk to us! Finally, they sent the van to pick us up. The driver did not speak English. Oh well. He did get us to the garden, though. The gardens were
