Almost Home

Day 113/At Sea

Yesterday we visited our next-to-final port, Castries, St. Lucia.



We saw some elaborate houses on a hilltop


and some modest ones in a fishing village.


Back on The Amsterdam, we were entertained by a steel band.



The instruments, made from discarded oil drums, have a very pleasant mellow sound like a marimba.

Now we are heading toward Fort Lauderdale and home. We will miss the new friends we have met, but we are really looking forward to getting home and reconnecting with everyone there.

This blog will continue for a few more episodes. The story would not be complete without a few more comments about shipboard life, our flights home, and our reentry into life without all the services provided by our wonderful crew.

Thanks for reading this blog and keeping us company on this fun journey!
