St Kitts & Nevis
We left a Nevis and made a short crossing to St
Kitts and into the marina at the capital Basse Terre.
We spent the afternoon exploring the town which was
very British (it even had red phone boxes. We replenished stores and ate out
that evening at Ballyhoo Restaurant - which was located on an openair balcony
overlooking Piccadilly Circus! - where we had a nice meal complete with an
interesting cocktail called "Dark and Stormy"... delicious.
Next morning we enjoyed watching the coming and
goings of the cruise liners and their passengers. In the afternoon we hired
Randolph- a very friendly taxi guide and we toured the island. WE particularly
enjoyed seeing the tropical gardens at Romney Manor and had a fascinating stop
Fort George on Brimstone Hill (where we almost lost Michael in the
dungeons.
Today we moved on to a quiet anchorage and we plan
to leave for St Barts bright and early tomorrow. M and
