It sounds like you're having such a beautiful and adventurous trip to Guadeloupe! The mix of breathtaking scenery, wildlife, and rich cultural experiences makes for an unforgettable journey. The drive to Basse Terre, although a bit nerve-wracking, clearly led to some amazing moments, like the stunning sunsets at your rental house. The kayaking and snorkeling must have been incredible, especially seeing a turtle up close!

I loved reading about the botanical gardens of Deshaies and the fascinating history behind the plants there. It’s amazing how much there is to learn from nature, like the story of the breadfruit trees and the unique tree that only blooms once in its lifetime. Thank you for sharing these wonderful details and photos! Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures and wildlife encounters! 🌞🌿🐢
