Jardin Botanique


We went to the botanical garden in Deshaies.  It was awesome.  Very well done, however it was all in French.

Bonus- when we were walking up the drive, a grounds guy came out with a really long pole with a funny attachment on the end.  It turned out to be a mango picking pole.

Mangoes are my favorite fruit. I love them despite being allergic to the oil in the skin.  We watched as he picked a mango and then he walked over and gave it to us.  He rattled off a bunch of French but I got the jest...it will be ready (ripe) in trois (3) days.  Woo hoo free fruit and my fav.


I am really glad we did the botanical garden now as it has helped us as we continue to see the wonderful and brilliant colored foliage on various islands.

  1. Oops, looks like you did make it. Nice to see the hurricane damage is all gone or healed.
