    NEIGHBOR? Since when do we adopt American English? The word is NEIGHBOUR.

      I’m afraid that would only stay as a pipe dream. Whilst Martinique, Guadeloupe and Marie Galante are visible from Dominica on a cloudless day, they are about 58 miles. Such a project would not be feasible.

      Go ahead start building one. I will join you as soon as you start the project.

      You sound as mad as these English people who return to Dominica.

    Be mindful of the horizon. Try to make it horizontal. The ocean appears to be falling to the right of the photo.
