March 12 We left Ft Lauderdale



We arrived at the ship around 1:00 and got right on with little trouble. We got into our rooms and went to have some lunch. Before we left I took these photos of my orchids.

March 13 Bahama Half Moon Bay


We stayed on board for this sorta island. The ship owes this island so there really isn't anything to see. There is swimming and some barbecue.

March 14 at Sea


We were at sea today. Lot of fun. Hewitt went to a stamp lecture and I went to a computer class to learn a few new things. We had fun during the day and then stop at the piano bar for a drink and to listen to Peter ( with an English accent) who played a mean piano. Just sat and relaxed and listened. This is a photo of the ship.

March 15 St Croix Frederiksted



There wasn't much in St Croix. We walked around the town a little and took a photo of the ship at the dock.

March 16 St Kitts Basseterre







We can to St Kitts. It is a rather poor island. Took a tour and drove around the island and had checked out the fort and other sites of interest.

March 17 St Vincent Kinstown and Bequie





We took a all day sail on a catamaran over to the island of Bequie. It was a great day. The sail was about one and hal hours to Bequie. We snokeled for awhile on one side of the island, then went to a beach and did some swimming. Then we had an island lunch on the sail boat and headed back to the main island of St Vincent. What a great day. The water was a little rough, but the sail was great.

Seward Creation


This is a Elephant that the seward created and left in our room

This is a smaller island and very mountainous. This is Dick and Lois high in the mountains.

On March 20th we sailed into the Great island of St Maarten. The shopping heaven of the world. We spent the day walking the streets and having fun. We ate lunch there also.
