The Inn At English Harbour

... always offered lifts to those in need) and get some exercise (this island is seriously hilly and the hashes were never on flat terrain). A 'small world' story took place on one of the hashes when Dana (wearing her Milan hashing shorts) was going through a narrow wooded area where you had to pass single file. The guy behind her says 'Have you hashed in Milan because I have hashed there a few times?' When she turned around it was none other than Free Willy (his hash name ...

... pointed out to us, apparently he's done an awful lot for the islanders and is held in high regard; one of the many things he's done is to build a rehab centre to help locals deal with their addictions. From there we went to the Betty's Hope Sugar Plantation for a Caribbean style buffet lunch, which was just amazing, Creole chicken, rice, salads, dressings, fruit bread, rum punch, fruit, after 2 large glasses of punch a couple of ...

... island's history from prehistoric times to the present time. It was quite impressive, interesting and well done. A short, guided tour of the ruins was taken afterwards where we enjoyed panoramic views from the observation deck.

Thereafter, we continued on to another Lookout point on the island for a picture perfect view of Nelson's Dockyard below plus various secluded coves. At that exact moment, what a wonderful feeling I had. The entire ...

... een heel klein beetje een "comfortcontainer"wordt (zoals wij de comfortabele luxe-jachten noemen). Energie Op Trinidad heeft Netjer een kleine update ondergaan waar het de elektriciteitsvoorzieningen betreft. We waren het meer dan zat steeds dagelijks de generator of de hoofdmotor te moeten draaien om de veel te kleine en versleten accu´s weer bij te laden. Een paar uur laptop of kortegolfradio was voldoende om de lichten letterlijk uit te laten gaan. Trinidad is op ...

... hoping to make a few dollars off of us tourists. Later in the day, we took a tour of the island and saw two gorgeous beaches: Dickinson and Runaway. Antigua is the larger island of the two island nation of Antigua and ...

... so much that day I'm not sure I cared what was put in front of me. Deserts were extra pretty and noisemakers and hats were put on all the tables. We handed out glow necklaces and light up pins to our tablemates. New Years offered a variety of venues and I think that Andy and I sampled them all. Free champagne was handed out - don't ask me about the quality as I had the obligatory amount for the toast then put it down. The Schooner bar with Daniella & Pete & Eleni was fun with a video feed ...

... tietysti paljon komeita purjehtijoita... Superhauska viikonloppu, Antigua yksi suosikkisaaristani Karibialla. Nyt kun olen ollut taalla joulukuusta asti niin on tullut aika hyvin koluttua tama seutu. Antiguassa tavattiin paljon tuttuja (talla alalla on aika pienet piirit ja tuttuja naamoja alkaa nakemaan paikassa). Olen tormannyt taalla monta kertaa Justin nimiseen poikaan ja kumpikin ollaan oltu aina etta tunnetaan toisemme jostain ...

... a bunch of refugees from the Four Seasons showed up to watch the rest of the game. It was great to see a close Super Bowl and glad to see the Steelers prevail. We enjoyed Nevis all week. Charlestown is a very welcoming port for cruisers. The dockfront is planted nicely and the government officials seem genuinely glad to see you arrive. We wandered through town, enjoyed both the Museum of Nevis History and the Horatio Nelson museum, scouted out the provisioning options and had a ...

... all the window seats had already been booked so I had to entertain myself somehow. The fruit of this is that I have now become a sudoku champion even managing to complete the advanced level!! Soy un genio! You may think it weird that I wanted a window seat for a flight that would only see the Atlantic, but I thought I might catch a glimpse of all the rowing boats on their way to Antigua. Yeah yeah, I know, a tiny speck on the ocean from 30000 feet, but miracles have occurred ...

... dish, and that we are not leaving without a proper meal.



Well, an hour later, and we are indeed enjoying a proper lunch - at least we weren't fooled!!







We have to return back to the ship as soon as we finish lunch, and we are to be carried to the last but most beautiful Island of all.
