Old Manor Hotel Charlestown

... Kitts. Im really impressed with him because he's very knowledgeable about the history of St. Kitts. Anyway first he showed us the town of Basseterre-- a gracefully revived town and capital of St. Kitts. After decades of sleepy existence, this elegant and graceful West Indies town was restored from its shabbiness. Now with carefull and sensitive restoration it revealed all the original charm and preserved its Caribbean architecture. Basseterre is now turning out tobe ...

... from the hordes that arrive on cruise ship days. We've found that most of the ports were cruise ships visit have all the same cheap touristy stuff and the locals hassle you at every corner to buy something or come on a tour somewhere. It's obviously how they make their living, but after a dozen or more ports like this you get quite tired of it. After saying that, we agreed to pay a friendly taxi driver to take us on ...

The Barrett-O'Keefe's bucked tradition and went to Nevis instead of Hawaii. Overall I would say it was a good decision. The flight was shorter and the time change was minimal. The best part was staying in a beautiful house with our own pool. With the downturn in ...

POLSKI: Kolorowi ludzie, kolorowy kraj i niedziela - wiec zrobilismy sobie wycieczke do kolorowego kosciola :). Spedzilam przemile popoludnie w malym miasteczku, malego kraju (40 tys. mieszkancow) na srodku Morza Karaibskiego. Nie mialam duzo czasu, ale mam nadzieje, ze tu wroce i zdolam zrobic sobie wycieczke wokol wyspy. Internet cholernie drogi - 2 ...

So, having been able to not remember a thing about Pennsylvania (at least nothing well enough to write about), and getting back to matt's place for a rest day, I headed off on the genuine trip.... all by myself :-o!! First stop, St. Kitts in the West Indies for the last 2 one dayers of the Australia/West Indies series. Unfortunately, Australia had already wrapped up the series 3-0, so both games ...

... Back in Frigate Bay for dinner, we went to the Shikkity Shack on the beach and had lobster and ribs. Reasonable prices there as we total was about $70 including drinks and tip. There was live music and entertainment including the local mythical FIRE MAN. He swallows fire, breathes fire like a dragon and does the limbo under fire pole. It was very surreal as they played the Fire Man Raggae song and all of the locals sing along. We are off to ATV in the jungle today, Friday.

... Carribean side. We had diiner with entire TI team on beach with chicken, roasted beef, grouper and pork buffett. There was a limbo contest and Annamarie and I lasted through a few rounds. Colleen Barneson was the winner with $100 prize! On our way to Catamaran/ snorkle trip on our 9th anniversary.

St Kitts: This is one of the better islands to go shopping. They are new to tourism and therefore their prices were very competitive. St Thomas may have more to choose from, but if you find what you like on this island, this is where you'll get the best deal.

There were two other ships docked and we were not docked were we were told we would be, so we had to take a taxi to the town. This was quite an experience as the taxi was a small mini bus with eight of us packed in and tail gated a large lorry most of the way to town whilst also driving in the ...

Hey all- It breaks my heart to know that I only have 10 days left. I am enjoying this experience so much, that I can't bear the thought of leaving this place. I just haven't been tired of anything yet. Haven't been tired of the heat or humidity, the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches everyday for lunch. It's just been such a great time with some really cool people- the students and the locals. We just took a bus ride from our little village of Crab Hill into Basseterre ...
