Today, our last full day, has been good. We drove down and snorkeled at Scott’s Head on the southern tip of the island, then rented a two person sea kayak and paddled up to Champagne Reef. We both saw sea tortoises at Scott’s Head. The …

Today we explored on our own. We shopped in Roseau, the capital city, and we went hunting for the two geocaches on the island. (There’s a link in the sidebar on the right to geocaching if you don’t know what that is.) When we found …
