Caribbean Cruise 2013

Photography by Ruth AND Howard.

We flew to San Juan March 8, stayed overnight with Doug and Trudy, and took a cruise on the Celebrity Summit in the eastern Caribbean. Our cruise ended up back in San Juan March 15. Someone nicknamed the cruise "The All Saints Tour" because of the large number of "Saints" we'd be visiting on this short cruise. Surprisingly, my favorite ports/islands were those visited first: San Juan, Puerto Rico, Barbados, and St. Lucia. Each island was different and charming in its own way.

We took a cab to the Radisson, stored our bags, and cabbed to El Morro.  (Here's the near by museum, path to fort & trolley.)

We weren't able to visit the old San Juan cemetery by the sea, but I hear it has some interesting headstones & monuments.

Doug P. picked us up, took us to get our bags, and fed and kept us overnight at his house. He & Howard both love to cook.
