Our travels from Grand Anse D'Arlets to St. Pierre, Martinique.

We stayed only one night in Grand Anse D'Arlets. After Jorge changed the engine oil, filters and oil in the V-drive, we decided to travel the 1 hour to Anse Mitan. No pictures of Grand Anse D'Arlets.

Boutiques along the main street in Anse Mitan, a very touristy area.
 
After two days in Anse Mitan, we headed to St. Pierre, where we caught up with Diana and Gilbert.

Shop in St. Pierre, 1902 was when Mt. Pelee erupted killing some 30,000 people.

Ruins of the grand theatre.

Our anchorage at St. Pierre.
 
We rented a car with Diana and Gilbert and travelled the north part of Martinique.
 
Mt. Pelee.

View from Mt. Pelee (okay we were in the clouds and couldn't see a thing!)

Banana processing plant.

Lunch at a restaurant in Grand Riveria with Diana and Gilbert. 

Lush vegetation.
 
Enjoying a cold beer after a hard day of touring Martinique!

Colourful fishing boats next to the bar where we had our beer.
 
It was hard to leave Martinique, especially knowing that we were parting our sailing adventures with Diana and Gilbert. We are heading to Dominica, with a one night stay in Portsmouth, and then heading to Les Saintes, Guadeloupe. We love the French islands!
