No, that`s not true for Guadeloupe. Carnival does not end so abruptly, because Guadeloupe has got a special regulation of Vatican admitted. The people carry black (hell) and white (heaven) clothes as they use on funerals. Everybody is allowed to take part in those parades. In small and big groups people are singing and dancing behind some drummers. Thanks Michel's advice I was properly dressed and could also move through the streets. That was much fun!
A monument to Victor Schoelcher you will find often, he fought successfully for the repeal of slavery.
