We visited Castries, St. Lucia on our 2022 Caribbean Cruise. We did an excursion that took us hiking up the Petons and for a dip in a waterfall pool. The drive out and back was a couple hours each way, up and down winding mountain roads, stopping for pictures along the way.

St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda
Our second port of call on our 2022 Caribbean Cruise was St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda. To get a taste of the various attractions on Antigua Island, we decided to take a guided “Let’s Take a Selfie” tour. The tour took us to the top photographic locations.
Charlotte Amalia, St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands
Our first port of call on our 2022 Caribbean Cruise was Charlotte Amalia, St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. We took a converted pickup/mini-bus for a quick drive up steep, curving roads to Drake’s Seat – an overlook to Magen’s Bay, then down to Magen’s Bay Beach for a few hours in the sun. A walk into town and back rounded off the day.
2022 Caribbean Cruise
We originally booked our cruise for the end of September, but it was canceled due to Hurricane Ian. We were able to rebook a similar cruise for November.
Bahamas
In 2011, we spent a week on Grand Bahama island at Taino Beach Resort. Beautiful weather all week long. Lots of rum, fun, and sun!
We were so bummed about leaving, we missed our connecting flight and ended up staying an extra day in Miami. Oops!
