So, this is part two of our stay in Martinique; if you’d like to check out part one, here’s the link: https://jadebennett.com/2023/06/10/tobago-martinique-pt-1/.
Anyhow, I wanted to make a part two to give more detail on all the things we did while in Martinique. We rented a car and spent a few days exploring the island. We loved Martinique and I think we’re planning to sail back there at some point in the next year.
We rented a car last week, and our first order of business was saying “goodbye” to Cleo’s friend who had been staying with us and driving her to the airport. After that, we drove to the botanical gardens on the island, explored the beautiful botany, and had lunch. After that, we stopped by the mall and stocked up on all the food we had been missing. It had felt like forever since we’d had access to a good grocery store with everything we needed, so we ended up with a loooot of bags.
The next day, we drove to a waterfall my mom had heard about and hiked a short distance to it. It was in a cavern, so after descending for a while, we had to walk through the valley-like stone to the beginning of the waterfall. It was so beautiful! And the water was amazing!
Now, we’ve sailed away from Martinique and are currently in St. Vincent. We’re parked here for a bit because Cleo is flying out today, and we’re picking up one of Stella’s friends. Then, I’m flying out on the 23rd to start my summer in LA with theater camp (aghghghgh!!). I’m so excited and will try to capture as much as I can and post while at camp, but I can’t make any promises—I expect to be kept very busy!
