Well....we wish we knew how to speak French in this part of the Lesser Antilles! Somewhere I really love but I'll leave it for a few hours to see if anyone else comes up with the answer as I'm running short of suitable photos.

This archipelago's largest island is shaped like a butterfly, you can just see the butterfly in this pic sitting about 20 miles away. . that pic was taken from a fort named after a famous french general exiled on st helena!

Guadeloupe is a beautiful island(s) It is in the shape of a butterfly, and they call them the blue and green Islands. Technically it is two islands.
Some say the best food in the Caribbean. We had some mighty fine meals when we were there. Classic French, Indian, and Caribe all marry to a cuisine that is absolutely amazing.
We stayed on the blue side but hiked the green side extensively.
Would love to return.

... ok I have to come clean - I am big fan of Death in Paradise filmed on island of Guadeloupe. The story takes place on a fictional island off the coast of Guadeloupe. If you have not seen it the first 5 or 6 seasons are on Netflix PBS just finished season 9 No judging!

Ah, OK. We stopped at Isle de Saintes a LONG time ago on a cruise, but didn't really remember it.

I think we should set the rule that Google is allowed after 18 hours after the original post time and no correct guesses have been received So I say tomorrow at 1000 EST (1400 UTC) Google answers accepted. Of course we are on the honor system Is that fair? That should give plenty of time for those who have seen it and not a chance to guess. You know Travel Hat the night lurkers. What the heck we will make up the rules as we go.... I just hope I get another one right - I got a great idea! Hope you guys read the back story... Pretty powerful!
