Hello everyone,

Hello everyone!

Just a few lines and a few photos this month : this message comes to you from the island of Grenada, where we are shooting , for the first time in over 20 years, a film about the Lesser Antilles ; shooting began in Martinique , on the Atlantic coast and in the north in the middle of sugar cane plantations, in St. Pierre , the former " Little Paris" of the West Indies , that was destroyed by a terrible volcanic eruption in 1902, and Fort de France.

Then we came to Grenada , which suffered two tragedies , the landing of American troops in the 80s , and a cyclone in 2004 ; but the small town of St George, which was partly rebuilt around its ?Carénage "remains a very nice Caribbean place.

Today we are going to cross the island to see waterfalls, the cultivation of nutmeg , and a rum distillery that I could not miss : it?s called "River Antoine !" Then we leave for Union Island in the Grenadines , where a small plane waits for us , with the same pilot who allowed us to discover the Antilles from the sky in 1992 ! And we will embark on a catamaran to return to Martinique , before visiting the islands to the north, Guadeloupe, Antigua , StMartin , etc. .
