An unusually warm February evening in London. I’m looking out over Heathrow, amazed at the blaze of lights; how do pilots find their way in? Guadaloupe tomorrow via Paris; sun, ocean, rest, I hope…
Did you know that it's rather #dangerous to travel on roads in #Grenada?
You might encounter a #beautiful #woman and be tempted to go with her... But she'll lead you into the forest, vanish, and you'll die a lonely and slow #death from exposure.
Your demise will be brought on by La Diablesse, a woman who sold her #soul to the #devil. In return she received some magic and eternal youth...
... except for the ugly face and the cow's foot.

Annihilation by Labor
New research suggests, that even though most indigenous people in the colonies died of european diseases, way more people died in the mines then expected and those who died by a disease had a lack of immune system because of the daily physical exploitation and destruction.
Citation Wikipedia:
"While the populations of Europe rebounded following the devastating population decline associated with the Black Death, there was no such rebound for the indigenous populations of the Caribbean. He concludes that, even though the Spanish were aware of deadly diseases such as smallpox, there is no mention of them in the New World until 1519, meaning perhaps they didn't spread as fast as initially believed, and that unlike Europeans, the indigenous populations were subjected to slavery, exploitation, and forced labor in gold and silver mines on an enormous scale."

@leshn @MattTheQuick Greetings to the #carribean. Great that there is such a geographically diversity in the #fediverse. One world one people feeling.
Here is what a relatively shallow (170 feet / 52 meter) decompression dive looks like. Link of dive video along with dive profile statistics to get an idea of the depth along the way.
