St. Bart's

April 15, we visited St. Barts, a Caribbean Island that is a French colony.  The island is actually considered part of France.  It is a very high-end island that is a favourite for the wealthy and famous people and their yachts.  Sting has a house here, but we did not see him.  

Here is the island as seen from our ship.

The harbour is beautiful, and busy, as you can see.


We explored the island by ATV.  Good fun.

St. Barts is famous for its fashion shopping.  All the big name stores are here.  Here is a shopper checking it all out.  Despite the temptations, she resisted successfully and only bought one item, a flashy top.

They were having a sailing race while we were here, so the there were lots of boats.

One of the attractions is to go on the Yellow Submarine to view the underwater sights.  We declined, but here is the sub.

Now, off to dinner with our Welsh friends, whom we have met on the trip.
