St. Lucia

Our third port was St. Lucia.  We went on a Whale and Dolphin watching tour.  It was a great way to view the island!



They say no man is an island, but if you lived in this house, you would be, right?

After the tour, we grabbed a taxi and went to a nearby beach. 



It was cool to be surrounded by the green mountains on both sides.  It was not cool to be approached by a guy wanting my bottle of water who also told me he did cocaine.

Antigua

Our second port was St Johns, Antigua.  I was super excited about going here because I had heard it was beautiful.  When we woke up and looked out our balcony, all we saw was gloomy rain.  We were supposed to go on a catamaran tour that day and go snorkeling, but it was cancelled and rain was expected all day.  We borrowed umbrellas and put on hats and took off anyway so we could at least see a little of the town.  I don't know why we didn't think of it, but later we thought we should have jumped in a cab and had him drive us around so we could really see it.  We didn't see much by walking.  Oh well, we were all still so amazed from St. Croix, we weren't that upset by the rain day.
