</a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Day 5 of our trip was a visit to St. Lucia. What a day we had. We got off the ship, went to take photos, and the humidity fogged up the lens immediately. We were planning to spend another lazy day on the beach, but getting a taxi to the beach was not really working for us (which was fine because it was overcast that day)....In order to get a taxi we had to "wait for a group"...and after waiting a while, and watching the locals walk around with signs that offered "tours of the island" we decided to change plans and take a tour.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The first lesson in this island adventure --- the men with posters, and photos of "you will see" these places, fail to mention that you will see them via your van window. They don't actually stop at many locations (unless there are locals in the middle of nowhere trying to sell you something). The good news was we got in the van, headed to the back and each took a window seat (left and right so we'd catch all views).</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The second lesson -- all fees are negotiable in the Carribean......thus, our $40 - 4 hour tour, became $30 and 5 hours....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> We took the most photos on this island, because we didn't spend the majority of the day touring.....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I bought the blue scarf prior to the trip to wear with the little black dress. When I showed the scarf to Matt he said, "Well, it is GREAT if you are 80" (referring to my lack of fashion sense). So, that night getting ready I told Julie the story and she was laughing at me. We headed out to a show in the theater before dinner, and the theater was cold so I wrapped up in the scarf and she decided she "had to take a photo for Matt".
