March 5 - Deshaies, Guadaloupe





Finally, we made it. After a wild sail, we were happy to find a delightful fishing village of Deshaies (day-hay). It is a picturesque village with around 25 sailboats in its harbor. It feels very European as opposed to the other islands. Of course, French food abounds. We plan to stay here a few days enjoying the town.
In the first picture, you see tourists standing in line to buy a hunk of fresh fish on the main street in Deshaies. The next picture is a scene at the dock where we tied up our dinghy along with local fishermen. Third is Mike enjoying a glass of wine at one of the beachside bars on a very hot afternoon. And last is a shot of S/V Jus' Now through the trees at Deshaies.
