March 30 and March 31, 2012
For every ship that sails the Caribbean, a must stop is St. Thomas. We stopped here on this cruise and decided to browse the shops of Charlotte Amalie in the morning and return to the ship for lunch and to relax by the pool. It was a mostly cloudy afternoon and those who went to the beaches complained of down pours.
In the evening, we watched most of "Midnight in Paris" at the Muts on Lido ,but the wind became so annoying, we gave up and skipped the last half hour. We will get a chance to see it again however.
In Dominica, we opted for souvenir shopping and relaxing onboard. It was extremely hot and humid and none of the excursions interested us. It is a very poor island, but lush and beautiful.
After dinner, we saw two shows and enjoyed a jazz ensemble. The ship has so many choices of entertainment and we actually were still up at midnight :)

Today we were in Grenada and docked next to a German cruise ship. This was the first time we ever saw one.
We took a ride on a tour boat called the Rum Runner around the harbor and along the coast of the island. We stopped to swim at Mourne Beach and had a great time.
We were entertained by a steel band on the boat and at the beach. Fresh fruit and drinks were served.
We are visiting the Crown Grill tonight for their fabulous onion soup and rack of lamb.
