Parents!

I'm in the middle (past the middle now I guess... sigh) of my parents visit and it's wonderful. My parents are extremly.... let's say "mobile" people. They aren't really into "hanging out" or "relaxing" as most people do it. Instead, they focus on getting as much out of an experience and/or opportunity as possible. I'm the same way when I travel, so it hasn't been an idealogical conflict, but boy has it been tiring!

I've been on vacation on the island with my parents for 6 days now, and I think we've hit almost all the major tourist activities that you can do here. So far we've:
  1. Hiked the British fort ruins on Pigeon Island
  2. Gone to the sulfur mud bathes
  3. Hiked the Tet Paul nature trail
  4. Snorkeled in Anse Conche
  5. Traveled to the French island, Martinique
  6. Sampled most of the popular local eateries
  7. Ziplined in Dennery
  8. Checked out fabric shops (this one was more for my mom)
  9. Shopped at the craft market's in Castries
I'm not sure what's left to do!
