The sun doesn't always shine in Paradise, and as we're still in transition between the wet and dry seasons it's not uncommon for us to get a rain shower now and then. However, here in Deshaies bay on the north west coast of Guadeloupe we had about three days of showers with little respite in between!
While we were keeping dry on the boat we made the most of the time; catching up with Internet, playing games on the ipad and cooking up new recipes - Jimmy bought this bag of vegetables, from a small local french market, for just one euro and it contained everything we needed for a delicious soup...
Now and then the rain did let up and we escaped on shore to do some exploring. Guadeloupe is another island owned by the French and the village of Deshaies has some great restaurants, gift shops and dive companies.
We hiked in the hills to the south of the bay for some great views overlooking the village and stopped at Hemingway's restaurant - unfortunately they don't serve food during the day!
