BWIA American Eag http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-459783.html The Small Hotel I choose was Habitat Terrace in The Bonne Terre Hills overlooking Rodney Bay great view by the way.. I had visited this area before and paid a much high price so this time I knew exactly what I wanted I did my research and choose Habitat Terrace I will go into details about this Incredible Small Hotel later. I arrived in the South of St.Lucia at Heiwonohra Airport the fl http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Castries/blog-451280.html Introctduction I was recently blow away by the service at one of St.Lucia Small Hotels. No this is not Inclusive like the big Chains like Sandals Windjammer which is a good thing.For years I have traveled to st.Lucia and other parts of the Caribbean on Vacation. I always use to go for the All Inclusive Hotels or those of which I can do as much as possible in the Hotels. That was going great unti http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Castries/blog-451199.html KVELY SAINT LUCIASSA 17.19.9.2009Saint Lucia on vierailemistani saarista ehdottomasti kaunein ja kyhin. Ensimmist kertaa tll matkalla kannan ksissni kolikoita jotta voisin heti antaa jotakin kerjjille ja huumenuorille. He ovat aika pelottavia sek pkaupunki Castriesissa ja Soufriressa. Miksi kveleminen on niin arveluttavaa Koska se on kyhyyden merkki. Vain kyht kvelevt. Ke http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Soufri-re/blog-437997.html SAINT LUCIA 13.16.9.2009Nyt tein vahingossa jotain vaarallista ja ajattelematonta. Kiipesin eilen Gros Pitonille joka on 2619 metri merenpinnasta ja Petit Pitonin sisarvuori. Molemmat vuoret ovat yht paljon Matterhornin nkisi eli aika jyrkki. Kyse oli vrinksityksest. Toistin monta kertaa jrjestjlle ett no no mountain climbing but hiking yes.

Food is great and great quality.Did some sailing today which was fun.Have visited the drive in volcano the famous waterful the rainforest the zip wire scaryMore later time running out http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-395480.html St. Lucia is fantastic it's peaceful relaxing exciting but the best feature of all is that you get to choose your ambiance. You make it whatever you want it to be whether it's the Beach biking ziplining in the forest or just having the chirping of birds serenade you. I planned my vacation with a travel consultant company from St. Lucia at www.islelanders.weebly.com. There you can make you http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Soufri-re/blog-381735.html This place is truly the most perfect. Our third time Booking with www.islelanders.weebly.com. There is no reason to travel to any other island or resort unless you have no choice. I have been all over the Caribbean and have never found total pleasure at any resort . We didn't have to do anything but inquire from the site above about what we wanted and they justt took over from there. Kershama and http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-381732.html Our next stop is one of the most picturesque and famous anchorages in the Caribbean and in fact a favorite amongst cruisers and celebrities alike. On the very southern end of St. Lucia are the two Pitons which are both a World Heritage Sight and a National Park. If you are lucky enough to grab one of the 12 mooring balls there which we did then you can stay the night in the anchorage betwee http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Soufri-re/blog-378114.html After enjoying Rodney Bay for a couple of weeks we decided to sail down to Marigot Bay just a quick 8 mile trip south along the St. Lucia coast. According to the Doyle guide this is one of the most beautiful anchorages in the Caribbean and we couldnrsquot agree more. We worked our way into the inner harbor and anchored the Rum Runner just behind a swath of beach that is lined with palm trees http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-375876.html St. Lucia is one of the many islands that we had to skip on the way down to Trinidad last year and as we sailed by the Pitons we wished we hadnrsquot. St. Lucia is so lush and beautiful we could tell that it is worth exploring as we passed by. So now that we are on our way back up through the Windward Islands we made it a priority to stop and spend some time on the island. Our first destinat http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-375297.html Today we visited the island of St. Lucia. This island was much larger in population than the previouse islands 160000. We didn't have any tours booked today we decided to make it a beach day. We went to Rodney bay it was really packed and not that brilliant I didn't even take any pictures today. The highlight was getting to go tubing for free the guy wanted to drum up some business so he http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Castries/blog-371554.html BEQUIA TO ST LUCIAOk where did I leave you We spent almost a week in Bequia we met another HR but much bigger than ours a 53 called Saskia. The couple Simon and Jenny and their teenaged children were really nice we invited them for a drink at 5.30pm by 1.30am we were all best friends Next day Simon made us some wonderful rotis it was a very enjoyable lunch. We went diving again http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Vieux-Fort/blog-370638.html What a sail The sun shining down warm water splashing on the deck calm cobalt blue sea and a wind of about 15knots on the beam..THIS is why we came What alovely few hours ST lucia appearing before us and Martinique gradually getting smaller. We had coffee with callisto before leaving and did a book swap and then really enjoyed our sail across it is only about 24 miles and there wer http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Castries/blog-364328.html Having had a fantastic wedding day in somewhat monsoon conditions we were greatly looking forward to our honeymoon in the Caribbean. Indeed we were keen to do some 'proper' travelling again albeit in somewhat more luxurious style than our last global adventure. We arrived blinking into the sunshine off our BA flight to be hit by a wall of heat. It had been a long time since we had felt any kind http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Anse-la-Raye/blog-356675.html In early May we left St. Martin and sailed to Oranje Baai St. Eustatius also called Statia. We stayed there 2 days and one of the highlights of our visit was a hike to the crater rim of the Quill Volcano. Most people have never heard of Statia but in the 1700s it was the trade capitol of the Indies with over 100 ships in the harbor at a time. After Statia we sailed to St. Kitts where we anch http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Anse-la-Raye/blog-281927.html We sailed to St. Lucia picked up Donna's sister Debbie at the airport and visited Pigeon Island in Rodney Bay. Pigeon Island is conserved by the St. Lucia National Trust. We walked to the top of both peaks on Pigeon Island.We went to Rainforest Sky rides and rode their gondola up to their zip lines. We went to the fish fest in Anse La Raye. On Friday nights they set up tables and stalls in this http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/Castries/blog-280851.html Last week I attended the destination wedding of two dear friends in lovely St. Lucia an island in the Eastern Caribbean. We flew into the international airport in the south and took a helicopter north to the opposite end of the island where we were staying in Rodney Bay. After months of dreary London winter the sun sand and tropical drinks were almost too good to be true...For days on end our http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Saint-Lucia/blog-263995.html
