Dominica, Paradise?
This flag of the Commonwealth of Dominica features one of two parrots that live in the rain forests of this tree clad mountainous island. We are staying here at Soufriere, the southern village on the leeward (west) side. Soufriere There are sulphur springs with pools to bath in and on the shore there are hot springs seeping into the sea on the edge of the beach. Bubble Beach just below the church has a small natural spa by damning up the hot water coming out of these springs and letting it mix with the sea water where you can sit and soak. The nearer you sit to the spring the hotter the soak. Too hot, just ease toward the sea. We went snorkeling and found out why it's called Bubble Beach. Pea sized bubbles wobble their way to the surface as the gases are released from the ocean floor sparkling like liquid diamonds.
