A plane spotter we know assures us that St. Martin is the best place in the world to photograph landing aircraft. Somehow, we prefer landing on St. Barth and getting the view from the plane.

This is the signpost to Pointe Tarare (a naturist beach), as of January 2005. It seems to change every time we visit. We do not have the coordinates for this particular intersection; we do have this photo geotagged for the beach. Click "Map This!" for its location on Google.

With the runway ending at St. Jean beach, many sunbathers take the opportunity to video tape arrivals and takeoffs.

Domaine Chateau Gaillard : The Domaine Château Gaillard is a host to artisan's crafts, pottery, plants, spices, a playground for children, and more. Our interest was in its Museum of Coffee and Chocolate. The museum was upstairs and not kept up, but it was fascinating nonetheless - ancient coffee mills, 50s and 60s coffee makers, and posters. The posters were the most interesting. Because of the close quarters, I took photos with a 10mm lens, causing the curvature you may notice. The property is near Trois Ilets and is easily recognizable by the helicopter landing pad near the road.

Slave Memorial at Anse Cafard, Martinique 2008 : In 1830, a ship anchored in Anse Cafard during a storm at night. The anchor failed, and the ship was driven onto a reef, where it was broken up. It sank with a cargo of slaves chained on board. A few survived somehow, and the memorial is for the event. Slavery had been officially ended on Martinique at that time, so the cargo was salvaged by sending them to Guyane, where slavery was till allowed, to be sold.

The memorial is remarkably moving, although I am sorry to say it is not being maintained. The story was on a plastic board which has been completely destroyed, and the concrete forms are badly weathered, with the rebar showing in several figures.

La Pagerie, Martinique 2008 : Marie Josephe Rose de Tascher de la Pagerie was the first wife of Napoleon Bonaparte and the first Empress of France. She was born in Trois Ilets, Martinique, in 1763. Her family home was a sugar cane plantation, the ruins of which are pictured here. She married the Vicomte de Beauharnais, who was executed in the French revolution. She married Napoleon two years later.

The family estate in Martinique was destroyed several times by hurricanes, and only the kitchen outbuilding remains today. (Kitchens were generally in buildings separate from the family residence because of frequent fires.) The estate has the stone foundations of the residence and the shell of one of the buildings used to press the cane and boil off the water, leaving sugar.

Eureka Valley Thanksgiving : Thanksgiving 2006 in Eureka Valley, home of the highest dune in California (700 feet above the valley floor). Photo times in the EXIF data are UTC (or UCT); subtract 8 hours for the local time. Temperatures during the day were in the 60s - shorts and t-shirts were comfortable. Lows at night were around 20 degrees. A couple of mornings it was 25 degrees in our tent. We made sure we had water in the coffee pot before we went to bed - it was frozen in the mornings.

MSR Wind 4 Expedition Tent : SEE NOTE AT END.
The first time I put it up, I put it up alone. It was not difficult, but not easy. The instructions worked, and I followed them without any confusion. It is a 4-person tent and has standing headroom in the center (for me at 5-foot 10 inches). The poles are long, so if we use the tent in a campground, it will behoove us to watch out where the poles go. More details under each photo. We camped with the tent in Saline Valley over Thanksgiving 2007. There were very strong winds, which did affect the tent, but not to the extent we were concerned. One pole bent noticeably, but no big deal. Photos of the tent on our campout at the end of the gallery.
NOTE: we've given up on using it. It's too cramped inside, the standing head room goes away when you have stuff in the tent and can't stand where the air mattress is - it takes up too much floor space and can't be situated away from the center of the tent.
