Fort Napoleon's walls

| Dave was a little hot after walking up the hill |
Jan, Dave and I trekked the kilometer up the hill to the beautifully
restored Fort Napoleon. Lots of historical information on view
including drawings and paintings of the battle of Iles des Saintes where the
British fleet destroyed the French fleet in 1762.

| View from the fort |
As the guide book states, every view from the
top of the walls is a picture post card view.
Surrounding the fort is a well-tended garden of cacti that attracts
hummingbirds and iguanas. As we began
our return to town, we spied one such iguana standing as a sentinel on top of
the wall.
