Roseau Dominica

We just arrived in Roseau, Dominica and do not have to tender in. The island is mountainous and verdant. There are beautiful rainforests.

St. Barths

This place is beautiful. Paul Allen has his yacht here (Octopus) and it is 410 feet long with a 60 ft. tender, submarine for 8 people, docks for wave runners and 2 helicopters. It is unreal. St. Barths so far is the prettiest of the islands, French speaking, lots of $. It seems like the Riviera. The water again is warm and such a wonderful colour. Everything is pristine. We will be back here Jan. 10 and will rent a car then. Can’t believe it will be 2006!

Virgin Gorda

Hello from Virgin Gorda, It was just gorgeous. We went to the pools in Virgin Gorda today and hiked through the rocks, down ladders and ropes to get to what is called Devil’s Beach.

The water was the Caribbean turquoise, warm buoyant and the scenery just gorgeous.
We are now back on board and thinking about which restaurant to eat in tonight. We cannot believe the quality of the food. It is miles above other shipboard food that we have had and the restaurants themselves are really beautiful. Last night we ate in the Toscana where they feature cuisine from Tuscany. Tonight is the magic show and the couple that perform are 21 and 22 years old. Apparently they are just fabulous.

Tomorrow we will be in St. Barts and we plan to go snorkeling. This is our first time in St. Barts so we are really looking forward to it.

The weather is a perfect 82* We are in heaven.

Romano in the Dominican Republic

We are in Romano in the Dominican Republic and just got back from the most beautiful beach where we swam and had lunch. The ship is magnificent and decorated to the hilt for Christmas. We love this ship and the guests are great and we are getting to know some interesting people. Our revenue is high and the classes well attended. Love to you all and Happy Holiday!!! This is us with our techy guy, Mel John. He is really competent and very nice. I’ll write soon. Just going to see the festival of lights and a champagne reception.
