Off to meet our tour. There were 17 of us and we headed off by bus to our catamaran. Along the way our guide showed us many different kinds of fruits and nuts and plants growing on the island. We also had to wait for a bunch of goats to cross the road in front of us. Our guide said they know where they live, and roam free to return home when they are supposed to. Apparently that's what they were doing - I caught a shot of them going up an alley.
I was quite amused when I saw this "security office".
Soon we were on the catamaran. They attached a fishing pole to the back of the boat, and caught a Spanish Mackerel as we made our way to meet the train.
Islands off in the distance.
And the inland shrouded in clouds.
Soon we were transported to our train.
Just kidding that was a small car that came in front of the train. Here's the train!
It was nicely outfitted and there was a nice woman making daiquiris and pina coladas for the guests. We enjoyed mango daiquiris! And they had a tour guide giving commentary and a group of 3 girls who sang traditional songs. It was a lovely way to see the island!
More goats - we saw lots of goats!
Surviving stacks from the processing of sugar cane back in the day.
We returned to the ship with little down time before heading to the show of the night - the crew talent show. Several folks who we have interacted with were in the show and it was really really good! Dinner and now .... time for bed. We returned home to find this guy on our bed.
