I promised some posts ago to start giving my ideas on what I might do in the various ports and sea days that I will be visiting so here is the first of them.
After leaving Fort Lauderdale late afternoon we will then have 2 full sea days before arriving in St. Thomas the US Virgin Islands - this will be the first of four consecutive port days - I will then visit Antigua, Barbados and Trinidad. The first three I have been to on at least two other occasions while Trinidad and Port of Spain will be a new one.
As a result I have only booked a tour in Barbados and it will be to Harrison Caves - they were closed for reconstruction the last time I was there so I will do a 3 hour ships tour and then spend the rest of the time wandering around the downtown area - there are three other ships in port the same day so the tourist spots and internet cafes will be swamped.
In both St Thomas and Antigua I intend to play it by ear - if I see something of interest shore wise I might do something otherwise just walk the town and take lots of photos.
For Port of Spain, Trinidad I have signed up for a ships tour and a little bit of adventure - it will be a four hour excursion to a waterfall - after a short stop at St Joseph Church we will then spend about an hour travelling to the Falls and a 45 walk to them - there will be a chance to dip our toes in the water if we choose - I enjoy waterfalls and will often book them to get some exercise.
As I have nine hours in total in Port of Spain should also have time to take in the historic and business part of the port.
By the time I finish with the four ports in four days I will be ready for a rest.
Cheers
