There are some travel journeys that are seemingly straight forward, but take unforeseen turns, only to eventually work out just fine. Our travel to the lovely island of Nevis was exactly that. Living in Florida, the three-hour journey to the Miami Airport and the flight to St. Kitts were essentially uncomplicated, then the unexpected happened. Let us back up just a little. We had originally booked a nice home to share with our friends Sylvia and Kevin (from the Travelers Century Club) on Nevis back in early July. Normally, you hear from the owners closer to your arrival date with the details about where the home is located and check in information. When Dave did not hear from the host even after messaging him, he placed a call to the owner, only to be told that ... read more

1. Little and Large - Two Cruise Ships

MandiT

Monday 9th February, 2015. St Kitts & Nevis We awoke early as we wanted to catch the public ferry to Nevis. We had already established that this departed at 9.30 am by using the internet at Sprout's place. We had a posh breakfast and as soon as the ship cleared we disembarked and made our way to the ferry dock. We arrived about 40 minutes early and the ticket office was not open. We sat in the waiting area and were joined by fellow passengers John and Pat who we quite often meet in Dexter's Bar. From the ferry port we could see the Azores and a Norwegian Cruise Line ship in the Cruise Dock. The Azoes looked so tiny next to the big liner. When the tick office opened D purchased the tickets and paid ... read more

Arrivée d'Annie et son amie Lisa

Grand Style

Dimanche le 3 mars 2013, Bonjour, Un autre mois a passé encore trop rapidement. Durant le mois de février nous avons traversé des Îles Vierges à St-Martin ou nous avons accueilli notre fille Annie et son amie Lisa. Cela faisait deux ans qu’elle n’était pas venue nous voir à bord, alors nous étions très heureux de la recevoir. À St-Martin, il y a beaucoup à voir et à faire donc durant son séjour de 10 jours nous lui avons montré les magasins bien sûr, les plages, le fameux 747 qui atterrit quasiment sur la plage, la plongée, les mardis soir de Grand Case … et pour finir une visite sur l’île voisine Anguilla. ANGUILLA : Île basse entourée de plages de sable blanc et de barrières de corail appartenant à l’Angleterre. La ... read more

alan and julian diving

Yacht Breeze of Weymouth

Tonight we are anchored in Sopers hole or west end as they prefer to call it in Tortola, one of the British Virgin Islands. Unfortunately it is going to be a beautiful full moon here tonight, and although it is only 5pm some large boats are already partying very loudly. It does not auger well for the night ahead, so I say, if you can’t beat them join them. There is a full moon party about 5 minutes taxi drive away, so why not…more on this later. The transport of the boat is all organised and when we come home in April, we can leave it knowing everything is under control. Since we decided to send Perthamina home we have made our way up here to the Virgin Islands. Firstly we stopped at Nevis, my cousin ... read more

Yacht Breeze of Weymouth

Hello! Well a bit of a silence, sorry about that. We have left Antigua after six years of visiting to bring Perthamina up to Tortola ready for her trip home. As many of you know we have decided to upgrade and buy a new boat, bigger and younger, so Perthamina is for sale. We also decided to bring her back to the uk, so she is being put on a ship at St thomas in may. In the meantime, Bruce came to stay for a couple of weeks and we went up to les saintes, and guadaloupe. The weather was awful, rough, big swell , it was very unpleasant for our journeys,. We went to deshaies , and then on to pigeon island for a really good dive. Continuing we went to les saintes, where alan ... read more
