This morning, we arrived back at the port where we started. It’s a little bittersweet as we met some wonderful friends and had such a great time. We are already talking about getting together again for another cruise; I hope it happens. Marguerite and Joe were leaving from the ship straight to the airport and […]

Today no excursions were planned by “the gang” so we all headed into St. Barth’s to explore around the town. St. Barth’s is where the celebrities like to hang out and it shows with the high-end shops (Cartier, Bulgari, Prada, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabana, and Chopard to name a few) you see

Today was the Star Flyers beach BBQ in Antigua, so basically a chill day. It is amazing how they can prepare, cook, and transport all the equipment and food to the island. We took a tender out about 10 a.m. and walked around the town. We went to Nelson’s Dockyard, which is a fully restored

CAUTION: FLOWER PICTURE OVERLOAD, LOL! We had an easy night last night as the trip from Isles de Saintes to Guadeloupe is a short one. We got up around 6:30 am and headed up top to watch the sun rise and see the ship pull in to anchor. We caught a tender into town and

Day 6 – Tuesday March 6, 2024 (Terre du Haut, Isles des Saintes) So, after last night’s activities, that included celebrating John’s birthday, we exceeded our fun limit and made it to bed about 1:30 a.m. John, the trooper that he is, was up and about at 6:30ish and I was having none of it.

Happy Birthday to John!!!! Today we had a Love & Chocolate tour in Dominica. We enjoyed a scenic tour of the island on our way to Pointe Baptiste Estate, located near Calibishie Village. The estate is a private domain covering over 25 acres. There is a historical guesthouse from 1930, the chocolate factory with a

There was quite a breeze last night and so there was more than normal rocking of the boat, which was fine with us. For those that don’t like that, this is not the cruise for you. All night you could feel the boating swaying and could hear the water slapping up against it. We never

Today was an easy day since we had to check out and board the boat in the afternoon. Enjoyed coffee on the balcony and watching the dogs chasing the cars again, lol! Enjoyed a nice breakfast and then showered and packed everything up. We had the hotel hold our bags until later in the afternoon

After a decent night’s sleep, we woke up early and enjoyed sitting on the balcony overlooking the water while having coffee. There are a group of dogs that hang out on the boardwalk and guard everyone from the cars and motorbikes that come by. They are hilarious to watch as they run after anything on

Our trip to St. Maarten started at 5:45 as we headed to the airport. We flew out at 8:30 a.m. to Miami and had about an hour layover. We got lucky as our gate was the one we arrived at, so we flew to St. Maarten on the same plane! Both flights were great; we
