Dominica - Day 1

Last Thursday it finally went from Pointe-à-Pitre on the ferry to Dominica. Since we took the first bus and this is unfortunately arrived a little later than planned, we were at the port of first total in a hurry and climbed as, without exaggeration, the very last ferry. The captain was apparently angry because he drove so fast and choppy then, that the ferry fun already about 10 minutes later and two anti-motion sickness pills was late for us to our past and nausea nothing helped except eyes, music to and through.

arrived in Dominica now we were waiting on the couch surfers, you should pick us. We waited 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes .... sometime We were restless and decided first by bus to the capital Roseau to drive, to search for an internet cafe there, so we are all couch surfers in the environment can ask for help and there may be to find accommodation.
We have asked it there somehow and after about an hour we had changed the night for a safe place, money, and once sat in the very beautiful "Corner House Cafe in the main street.
We were totally überwältgt from the scene that offered us. Everything was so vivid, the houses were so colorful, all very busy ... we immediately felt like a Hollywood movie, because everything seemed so surreal. It was beautiful.




When we wanted to pay, we met by chance a resident of the couch surfers, Stef, who gave us his number, with which we agreed for the next day. We said our goodbyes and met him about 20 minutes later, when we were on our way to the bus to find a beach outside the city. He took us ado, it's saying, he gave us "a ride", and drove us to a beach of his friend Patrick.

After we had cooled the water a bit, Patrick came to greet us and invite us into his tree house. Sounds crazy, it is, but it's true. Patrick had a multi-storey, with suspension bridges connected tree house in which he not only survived, but also worked.



He invited us to a coconut with rum, which he brought us fresh from the palm and showed us his palace. The plot was really huge, but it unfortunately did something come down because he's just returned from an extended stay with his son in the U.S. and no one cared about the house in time. So we sat there
now, with our "cocktail" in the hand and chatted with him about life in Dominica and his children, who live scattered all over the world. Eventually we had to go unfortunately, as we catch the last bus take in the city had.

In the city we were preparing ourselves for a great night out and made our chic to notice only to find that the city is completely dead at night. Or we just have not found great bars, of course this can be. Almost no one except the homeless, we have encountered.

Sapir Shani's in da house!

First, an addendum: For those who do not know. Sapir is good at 14.11. now arrived and stayed in Lara's room, while Lara and I now sleep together in my bed. As always in fact.

With Sapir everything is totally great and we try as much as possible to do with it. So we were already at Pointe des Châteaux, Rivière Rouge, Matouba and 5 days in Dominica!
The next entries will be about Dominica, as we have seen too much to write one entry about our time there.

L'Artchipel

We were now, as befits educated students of literature, the theater. In Basse-Terre, there is a relatively large theater called "L'Artchipel" by even occur relatively famous artists. Well, at least for relatively Guadeloupe famous artists. It is, so it can be said for the entire western half of the island a cultural center.
Today was the play "Colère" section. This is based on the trilogy Amour, Colère et Folie "(love, anger and madness) by Marie Vieux-Chauvet. The story sounded very interesting. It is about a Haitian family who are injured as the regime has bad things, including their country is taken away, they need to grow, to regain it must prostitute her daughter.

The promising plot was unfortunately slightly different realized as expected. In the speech before the beginning of the piece was also mentioned that there is a "Spectacle" is. Since we were supposed to be already hear everything, but we were still a bit surprised when the lady has just read a monologue. Luckily, the actress Nicole Dogue has spoken very clearly, otherwise we would have understood nothing of the plot, because the old method "by opening up the context and movement and action and everything that is not necessarily mediated by speech" worked unfortunately very limited.
Cinette has fortunately not bought the book that we have borrowed directly. Read value, it seems in any case because it deals in other parts of the Caribbean culture and the special problems in Haiti. These include, among other things, discrimination, poverty and oppression by the regime. As an ordinary Europeans one is versed in these things naturally and not particularly worth it, once again about to experience.
