After seeing the amazing stonework of the French immigrants, and getting back to our place in the black cove to sleep, we were greeted with the prize of fresh fish from people who work here. We were told by Claude about this possibility, and we eagerly anticipated fresh fish.

Not until our last night on this island, but when it came, it was already marinated and spiced. Three types of fish – speared today just for us! Marinated while we were out looking at stone walls. Incredible. We have rarely eaten fish so fresh! The two smalle r fish with orange and black tails are lion fish but we don’t remember the names of the others.
We delighted in the fresh fish, lettuce and tomatoes from a vegetable stand, and bread from a boulangerie. Fantastically French and Caribbean.
Then we went again to the pier to see the stars and the moon.

A fingernail of a moon!

Orion straight up! Clare had to lay down on the pier with binoculars to see the stars while Brian took photographs. We were both happy to do this.
