The hike to Mount Pleasant…was just beyond our expectations! It was like strolling through paradise..strolling may not be the right word as the first hour was really a walk uphill, in the noon sun. [We cannot figure out why we always managed to start walking around noon? ]. There was not much of the sea breeze to be felt on the road toward Mount Pleasant ..but huge mangoe trees, oleander trees, and hibiscus bushes. Once in Mount Pleasant, we found a bench and sat there, admiring the landscape beneath us…before walking the loop and passing through hills with flowering trees (it’s spring, remember!), more mangoe trees, grapefruit trees, waxed apple trees…lush nature and perfumed air…


La randonnée jusqu’a Mount Pleasant (toujours sur Bequia) en compagnie de nos amis Pam et Bill fut assez extraordinaire. La nature exubérante, les immenses arbres de toutes sortes, les parfums, les panoramas..tout y était pour en faire une de nos meilleures randonnées!
