A day by the pool

Well it was our last full day on St Kitts.  We had breakfast, bought gifts for people and laid by the pool.  It was a very relaxing day!  We are going to one last nice dinner tonight and then going to lay by the pool in the morning.  We had a blast, despite a few setbacks (like American Airlines and Earl) but had a wonderful time together.  Definitely brought us closer!  We are both looking forward to getting home though...not going back to work but seeing our pups (all 3+1+1 of them!) and of course the family!  We will talk to everyone tomorrow!!!

Flyin' High Over St.Kitts!

Well, just got back from the zipline tour, it was awesome! Definitely one of the most amazing things I've ever done, 4 different lines with speeds up to 40 mph. I'm so proud of Lara of coming over her fear of doing this, we both will never forget it. Met some very nice people on the way there and had a very interesting local come back with us......had some good stories. With only a couple more days in "paradise" we are going to soak up as much sun as we can, maybe another activity for tomorrow, we'll see. Well, off to the pool for a while to catch what's left of the sun! Will post video and pics from today soon.

Tour of the island, Brimstone Fortress and more!

Well, thankfully, no Fiona impact here at St.Kitts, just a bunch of clouds and light rain. Headed down to the lobby to rent a car this morning only to find out they were out of cars. No worries, just had Avis come pick us up within 20 minutes and we got a car from them. Very wierd driving on the left side of the road dodging potholes and goats for most the drive. Still, very nice to get around and see what the island had. Went through some very interesting parts of town, some rather poor parts as well but saw some beautiful countryside and plantations. We stopped off at Brimstone Fortress around lunch time and it was really great, walked around, all the way to the top gun firing deck and took some really great pictures....posted on Lara's Facebook. After that, continued around the island to the south east tip of Cockelshell Bay, couldn't find Shipwrecked, a local restaurant so headed back to hotel for another serving of the Pizza Shack. It was really nice to get out and about, we have the car till tomorrow morning at 11:30am so may get up early and go somewhere, maybe to the capital to look at the shops. Anyway, off to the Royal Grill tonight for dinner, really nice steakhouse here at the hotel. New pics on Lara's Facebook. Zipline tomorrow morning!
