This is a top pick! ... of things next to her so high that it reached the roof of the car. What a state! But we happily headed north to St Lucia, about 3 hours drive north of Durban and arrived early evening. We found a hotel which did us a super deal for only £15 per person ...
reservations
This is a top pick! Of course you can't go to Africa without visiting the animals. And I did. I went to Hluhluwe game reserve near St Lucia, a coastal village about 300 km north of Durban. There I was persuaded to go whale watching too. The Addo Elephant National Park, a ...

Crocs and apple pie! A good day in KZN
This is a top pick! ... . What happened to the sun? But we went up on deck nonetheless, huddled into a corner and set about seeing the wonderful St. Lucia birds. Everything seemed a bit glum, roosting, trying to get out of the wind and rain. So although we saw plenty of fish ...
land of the Pitons
This is a top pick! Once St.Lucian immigration saw my wristband i was let straight through without a passport stamp which i like getting but hopefully won't be a problem leaving the country either. I walked out of the airport and asked the tourist board 'how do the locals ...

No wildlife in St. Lucia!
This is a top pick! ... hits you on the road. Am I in an old time movie house? Has the projector gone wrong? As I got closer to St. Lucia the traffic became aggressive. Suddenly there were lots of small trucks pulling boats on trailers, SUV's packed to the brim with children ...

Another detour
... just a wee bit off. Clare and I had a wonderful three days together exploring all of the amazing parks and wetlands around St. Lucia. We rented a car and headed off to Cape Vidal one day, doing dirt track game drives along the way. We ...
On our way.....take off....touch down......arrival
Well 4:00 am came early. Mary was too excited to sleep well, but Gerry did a little better. We completed the three S's (a saying of Mary's Dad's) (shave, shower, shit), the car was packed with our Toronto luggage and coats and we were in the lobby ...
Hey, I never get seasick... Yeah right!
The start of the trip was very rough sailing from St. Lucia to Bequia (St. Vincent and the Grenadines.) We had 3-4 meters of waves, a lot of wind and we kept broaching because of sudden changes of the wave patterns. (Broaching is taking in water in the ...
2 hour stop in St Lucia en route to Dominica
My next stop from Barbados was St Lucia. Well anyone who knows me well knows that one of my best friends Bev, is a St Lucian in and out so naturally when I landed in her hometown I couldn't resist giving her a call. She was at work in London at the ...
In Search of Pirates... or Johnny Depp.
... omen for the rest of the trip, my flight from runway-challenged JFK actually took off on time and arrived in warm & sunny St. Lucia 20 minutes early. I was greeted at the airport by Peter - a cab driver our captain, Norman, sends to pick up new crew ...
Sodwana Bay
From Jozini i took a long, long, very bad road to Sodwana. By the time i got to Sodwana i had driven 150kms on dirt roads in africa in a small toyota tazz. Not recommended by anyone, for sanity or safety. As you can see the road was ...
Soufriere

Sunday in St Lucia
We started the day off with breakfast on the balcony again, at 8:00 am. The view over the bay is just spectacular and the temperature is cooler than later in the day. Then we were off to church in Castries. It is about twenty minutes away and we were ...
Day 88-89: Bye Bye Becca
We left Martinique for our final push to St. Lucia. The sun rose just in time to give us some light as we entered Rodney Bay. We didn't stay long for we wanted to get to the Pitons, these 2 jagged mountains along the west coast, having intentions of ...
Sandals Signature Club
Today we got up late, after a late night, last night. We started the day at the Swim-up Bar. We promised to have fruit every morning for breakfast so we had a banana colada and watched the aqua fit class. Later we had a delicious lunch in Bayside, ...
Visit two more countries, and the car broke down!
... -starts and 4000 RPM 35 kms out of the park and into a garage. Got the car back this morning, and here we are in St Lucia. This afternoon was spent with more failed fishing for me, and a book on the beach for Hannah. Tommorow we go to one of South ...
Swaziland and St. Lucia
... waterfalls up the road. After that, we spent a little while at a market, and then hit the road again towards St. Lucia, about another 4-5 hours away. The place that we had booked for the weekend was deserted, apparently closed down, so we found ...
Caribbean Street Party
... records have been kept. We went to the Caribbean Street Party tonight. Having street parties is a cultural thing in St Lucia every Friday night, so the Resort has started having their own. Amazing food choices from seafood broth to chicken soup inn ...
East Asian Feast
Well the day started in a rather surreal way as we ate breakfast on the balcony.....more on this later. The afternoon we spent quietly reading in the cabana. The service is spectacular, food and drink delivered before you even think you want it. They ...
Land Ho !
After nearly three straight days at sea, we made our first port of call. We were the 2nd of four ships to arrive in St. Maartin. The other three ships were Royal Caribbean's "Explorer of the Sea's, on a nine night Eastern Caribbean cruise out of New ...
The magic that led to the broken heart
... can I say? It was a powerful moment and I felt so blessed. My time at Thanda was now complete. Back to St. Lucia - Sunday involved delicious breakfast and a lazy day on a beautiful wild, white-sand beach - jumping in the waves and lying in the ...
Life's A beach if you're a Hippo!
We baz bussed up to St Lucia, which (unlike its Caribbean namesake) is a tropical forested wetland which starts a wetland stretching up the entire east coast of africa. It is a global heritage site which means Hippos and Crocs (wild animals) can ...
Geen wild, wel regen
We arriveerden gisteravond, tegen zonsondergang in Saint Lucia, in Lidiko Lodge. Een losstaand huis met eigen oprit, aan een gigantisch grasveld. "Liever niet 's-avonds rondlopen over straat, je kunt beter de auto pakken. De hippos grazen namelijk graag ...
