    She serves us some rum punch delicious and strong at the same time. Before we leave our guide shows us the coolest plant I've ever seen. If you touch it it sort of closes up on itself. I forgot its name but I remember she said the slave owners brought it here and planted it around the property so they could track any slaves that tried to escape. She also says it takes about 15 minutes for it to reopen again... I have a video but I gotta figure that out.

    We used to call that plant Shame Old Lady (written in the Queens English)

    My parents saw the same plant in Australia.
