I Love Dominica Voici comment Voici why
Dominica, Roseau so vibrant with it's traffic of cruiseships whose cargo gets dispatched into the lush mountain spas or extreme hiking or diving-people who are place proud and eager to share their island-very refreshing. Life guarded by the Panchos 1 and 2 and their council of scary rastas who squat under a house to fry up the fishes they net 2wice a day, play dominos smoke ganja and drink rum. I just told them I was taken aback by their roughness and that it would be my wwish that they protect my property and make me love their country. They sure rose to the occasion.
Met many 40somethings called back home by entrepreneurial parents to give back to their countrie's economic touristic growth. The number of divemasters is higher than I've ever heard of. Some are excellent, some are too young-training is big in the toursim industry. Indian River Guides have organized and won excellency prizes for their initiative. Organizing stemmed from increasingly aggressive boatboy practises in Prince Rupert Bay. Anchorage Hotel owners were made conscious of the needs of their harbour's own boatboys. As sailors boatboys are our first contact with Dominica. Farther N there just are no boatboys athough in Luperon DR there was a multiservices boat that knocked on our hulls to get work.
The Panchos Sea Cat and one or 2 others at Roseau Harbour are the original kids who swam out to greet vessels 30 years ago! They have families, still live in oceanfront shanties while, as nowhere else the rich are up from the shore-Pancho 1 says it us because they don't wish to have to contend with the sea's moodiness and destructiveness.
One dy I spent 3 hours with a group of women in a rather fancy shop. This was a great moment and the next day I hired a car and took one of them up on her invitation to comme and find her home in Warton Waven. Lunch was had at Trafalgar Paradise overlooking a gorge which these long foetoes was supposed to show

Marin Martinique La Dominique
470 lb MarlinQuand ils l'ont eu hissé ce mastoche éructa une grosse bonite au grand délire des enfants
When they'd hoisted him the big fish burped out a whole tuna which made the children squeal for delight

Meanwhile back at the boat que celles et ceux qui pensent que j'me fais bronzer dans l'été éternel voient que je suis occupée dans mes cales à tracer des routes et à préparer l'arrivée de mon Doudou |
Anyone imagines that I spend days bronzing in endless summer rtake attention to my other activities, Buffing bilges, tacing routes and preparing of Claude's arrival |
Regarde où je me brosse les dents! |

Vers Tapalpa
Madame se mit en route pour aller voler dans un Mexique dit dangereux je ne connus que du bonheur mais la veille de mon départ le pueblo de Tapalpa fut secoué par un double règlement de comptes. Même le festival de la Luna a dû être annulé. And off travelling to fly she went in a Mexico labelled dangerous I met nothing but goodness although the night before I lesft Tapalpa a double hit within some cartel made the town jumpy so much so that their annua Moon fest had to be cancelled.
