St. Lucia

After Antigua we sailed to the beautiful island of St. Lucia. Once my morning classes were finished Lisa and her parents and I took a taxi across the island to Marigot Bay. On the way we stopped at a look-out point and took some photos of the harbour and our elegant MS Prinsendam


It took us about thirty minutes to drive to Marigot Bay and we stopped once again above the bay to take a few pics looking down at it. We then got in a little ferry and crossed the harbour and had lunch on the other side of the palm trees. Service in the restaurant was on 'island time' and we had to rush to make it back to the ship on time. But the weather was perfect, the scenery was picturesque and the company couldn't have been better.  





Waiting for our food!! 

I have so many pictures from this day, but I think these are some of the best ones :) Enjoy! Now I have to set up for class.

Puerto Montt, Chile - The Photos

I haven't done much site-seeing here because I've been studying up on some of the sessions I'll be teaching. But I did walk around a little bit yesterday. It was gorgeous and sunny and I enjoyed sitting beside the water soaking up some Vitamin D :)
Ship coming into the Harbour, Puerto Montt, Chile
The fog from yesterday began lifting and I saw a ship coming into the Harbour. (PS my favourite show as a kid was "Theodore the Tugboat" and I still love watching ships in harbours and yes, sometimes I pretend I'm the 'Harbour Master' and make up scenarios in my head :P)

Statue on the 'boardwalk' of the Harbour
This statue seems to be a huge tourist attraction and overlooks the harbour. I like that he's wearing red lipstick too.

View to the East, Puerto Montt, Chile 
You can't really tell in this image, but there are snow-capped mountains in the background.

Graffiti - Puerto Montt
And of course some more graffiti. I think this one says "Refresca tu mente en colores" which I think translates to something like "colour refreshes your mind" - Something to think about :) 
Goodnight!

Puerto Montt, Chile - Morning Fog

I woke up this morning super excited to look out my window and see what Puerto Montt looks like. and this is what I saw: 

Puerto Montt, Chile in a blanket of fog
At some points during the morning I couldn't see this little Island there was so much fog. However
now I'm starting to be able to see ships coming into the harbour and it's starting to clear up. Looks like it'll be a nice day!
