Cherry Lodge Roseau

... a few pirates vacation packages and inspired pirate games and discoveries. <br><br> Dominica is about discovery. Much of its 360 rivers, rainforest and mountains are still unexplored. Sightseeing, trekking, hiking, diving is among the best in the Caribbean. But Dominica's true nature is a gentle peace; quiet in a ...

Well, yesterday was an annoying day. LIAT doesn't tell you that they are making 2-3 stops, so what was a 1.5 hour flight became a 5 hour flight. ON the plane, I learned that my new beautiful silver bracelet, which cost me $180 EC, or $60 US, really should have cost $160 EC for 2 (they are supposed to come in pairs). That's what I get for rushing around and for buying at stupid duty free, and not from a local. Ok, 3rd annoying thing. Got ...

I'm leaving today. I'm a mixture of happy and sad. I got a ride to the airport with the american couple which saved me $70 US. Yesterday was fairly uneventful. Got back on the bus from Roseau. Getting around has been an intricate system of connections. Some people know who I am before I get there because of staying with the Grand Fond families. That village was remote ...

... it's incredibly worth it! I recommend renting one of the lifejackets or noodles if you're not a strong swimmer, as the current can be strong. However, it's not a long swim to the end. The waterfall at the end of the gorge is breathtaking...We're shooting ourselves every day, since no one brought their water cameras...but that scene will stay with us.<br><br>Afterwards we had the choice of going to Trafalgar falls or ...

Dear Blog,<br><br>This morning, we arrived at the island of Dominica at 8:00am. Since the tour was starting at 9:00am, we had ample of time to get ready. Like usual, we had breakfast, buffet style, on the 16th deck in the Caribe Cafe. The servers were pleasant and ready to serve us coffee or juice. <br><br>From our seated table, we could see far away the island greeting us as the ship made its way slowly through the ...

... blow up under these pipes that you lay on. It is warm and so relaxing. After that we soaked in a Whirlpool, then I went and Got my hair cut. She cut off a little more than I wanted L but I thing it will be ok, it grows back. My hair really needed it. After that I went and met Dad and Kathy for a drink and Kathy and I decided what excursion we wanted for Aruba...Horseback riding! We decided not to do an excursion in Granada because they all ...

... It is over 40 years old! <br><br> The next destination was the Hot Sulphur Springs called Screw's Sulphur Spa. This was super relaxing - to soak in one of five natural hot springs that ranged in temperature. We were in the medium temperature one, which was like a relaxing hot tub. <br><br> The water was orange, only due to the sulphur content in the water - the water is very clean. You also couldn't smell the sulphur at all ...

... J'ai évidemment trouvé deux paniers aux motifs et aux formes intéressants! Après mes achats, j'ai déambulé dans les rues de cette capitale colorée, mais je n'y ai vu que petites maisons et cabanes. Mon coup de coeur est allé à cette nouvelle construction où on a troqué la brique pour des morceaux de corail et des coquillages! Et aussi pour le seul restaurant ouvert le 'Lovely Chinese Restaurant'!! J'ai fait la tournée des deux églises du centre-ville ...

... left us in Dominica after six weeks of wonderful fun. It was like a vacation for us to have someone else to visit and talk with. We headed south to the capital city of Roseau - a hot, crowded, messy place. We only spent a day there trudging from one end of town to the other to clear customs and immigration and then we continued our journey - to the next island, Martinique. In fairness to the island and peoples of Dominica, we found them to be friendly ...

After a stop to St Maarteen and Antigua, we landed in Dominica! I told my friend it was a long way to the city from the airport, with narrow roads on the side of cliffs. The taxi drivers are just nuts! They don't even slow down when they meet another taxi!. When we passed Roseau, we could see how poor this place is ...
