We arrived in Barbados this morning!
For the next several week we will be crawling through the Caribbean. Below is map and list of Islands & Ports where will dock. Most islands have a 2 day stay - some longer and today and tomorrow just one. Unfortunately, we are hearing reports of island flooding in Grenada - they got hit pretty bad with storms. Today off for a stroll in town before hitting the beach!
Last night we had a welcome to Caribbean party on pool deck - was supposed to come as a pirate or in island wear.
BONAIRE - Day 2 - One of my top 10 so far!
View from one of high spot in the center of island looking out toward port. Island very dry and arid with lots of divi trees bent over in the winds and two types of cactus - one edible and the other poisonous ( used to build fencing). The Miller's and I did a private van tour around the island and then we ended tour at a beach for a couple hours R&R. Our fabulous driver/ guide came back and picked us up and concluded tour back to port and gave us each a gift ( Bonaire magnet). She was super! Below are slat fields - a big industry for Bonaire - harvested every March. Salt shimmers in sun as the water evaporates in the pools.
PORT OF SPAIN, TABAGO - The Miller's arrive for a visit!
