Day 3 - St. Kitts

Another beautiful warm day in the Caribbean.  We arrived in St. Kitts. 

This was an island that we had visited with Stephen as well.  The last time we were here the boys had monkeys placed on them as soon as we got there and then we had gone snorkelling. 

This time we decided to visit a sister island and so we boarded a boat and went to Nevis.  Okay, the boat was a little bigger than this but the message was good on this little vessel.

It was cloudy and windy with a chance of shattered showers but it was 28 degrees Celsius so there wasn't really anything to complain about.  We took a bus tour around the island.

We toured an old plantation which had been turned into a resort but was now waiting for someone to purchase it...I think it was listed at 4,000,000.

We watched the rain storm come down the mountain to greet us by the time we got to the beach.

At the beach we were treated to a lunch just before the rain came.

The rain came, the winds blew and we got wet but then the sun came out and we went swimming in the warm ocean with waves pulling us out and pushing us in.  It was wonderful.  We met a nice couple from Medicine Hat and enjoyed visiting with them.  Ron went snorkelling and saw a turtle, lots of different kinds of fish and brought me some shells.

And when our time was up the boat arrived right on the shore and we boarded and went back to our ship.  It was another great day.  And yes, it rained....but it wasn't snow so it was fine.

Next day....a Day at Sea and I will tell you all about our floating hotel.
