Rain! In Antigua






Who's ever heard of such a thing?
It was a set of blue rain-coated LIAT travellers who stepped out onto the tarmac to board 361 destined to Dominica in the pouring rain at 6 in the morning. Yes, 6a.m. Morning flights are very early in the eastern Caribbean! So be prepared to be up and out real early. Hitting the road by 4.30 to reach in time.
With an hour long plus winding trail of a road to reach capital Roseau It's essential to be on that first flight if you want to be on time for early meetings. What a whirlwind of a day - meetings, meetings, meetings, radio interview, TV appearance and sight seeing in between. The blue rain coat came in very handy in Dominica also....more rain. What's going on here? This is the Caribbean, and, to prove it, two cruise ships where in port. Rain or no rain,tourists swarmed the capital taking up every inch of space available.
Early departure again tomorrow morning. Wish us luck. No more rain please.

Caribbean Trekking


......And we're off!
After weeks of planning and organising, we're off on another Caribbean trek. Sorry to spring this surprise on you but we've just been so busy and caught up in the preparations that we did not have a moment to stop and update you on on plans.
Anyway, you're invited. So come along with CHOICES, join us on our merry way as we journey through several Caribbean islands, stopping along the way to visit with old friends and renew friendships.
Of course, you guessed, it's more about work than fun but we don't care. Once it's the Caribbean it's like being on holiday....everyday.
First stop Antigua - we'll reach there by late afternoon. The sun will be just setting as we arrive at the VC Bird International at Coolidge.We won't be there long so try and keep up with us as we rush on to Dominica for our meetings there.
Oh, and by the way, we may not be able to give you a step by step account but you will get the whole nine yards.....eventually. So keep on reading.
See you down in the islands!
