Another beautiful day here in the Caribbean as we arrived in St. Kitts. Along with its neighbor Nevis, St. Kitts is an exotic landscape that looks more like Polynesia than the Caribbean. The island of Nevis is only a few miles away across the bay. The mountains here are much higher than on most other West Indies islands. And the people are very friendly and polite to visitors.
Cindy and I went into the town and looked around. We also looked at some of the locally made items in the market. It was a surprise to see that the prices for most things weren’t too high. Of course there were men everywhere with small monkeys offering to let you hold the monkey for a photo and of course money. I’m sure we will see plenty more monkeys on Devil’s Island and in the Amazon.
The temperature today will reach a high of 82 degrees with a little humidity.
It’s an early 4:30pm departure today en route back to Fort Lauderdale. We will have 2 sea days before pulling into Fort Lauderdale on Tuesday morning. Once we arrive we will have to clear customs and then we can reboard the ship. Won’t have to wait on luggage or anything, since we are staying in the same stateroom for the Southern Caribbean cruise.
