Caribbean Cruise 2013

Photography by Ruth AND Howard.

We flew to San Juan March 8, stayed overnight with Doug and Trudy, and took a cruise on the Celebrity Summit in the eastern Caribbean. Our cruise ended up back in San Juan March 15. Someone nicknamed the cruise "The All Saints Tour" because of the large number of "Saints" we'd be visiting on this short cruise. Surprisingly, my favorite ports/islands were those visited first: San Juan, Puerto Rico, Barbados, and St. Lucia. Each island was different and charming in its own way.

We saw older churches than this (St. Joseph's) but with the Atlantic (hard to see) in the background, this is my favorite.

We were glad to make it back to the ship. Driving in Barbados is hard - few signs, narrow streets, drive on the left, etc.

The next morning we woke up in our 1st St. - Lucia!  This is near where we docked in the capital city of Castries.

We boarded boats with names like Israel King & Let God Arise & off we went on a fast, bumpy ride to Jalousie Beach.

Jalousie Beach was a typical Caribbean beach except for the setting - the beautiful Pitons.

We couldn't use the loungers, as a nearby resort owned them, but beaches in SL are free, so I took a stroll.

We went to the drive through volcano, a waterfall & had absolutely fabulous bread with a handle. (See More gallery).
