CRUISE 2013 - DAY 6 ST KITTS





We didn’t have much planned for St. Kitts as we figured we would want to slow day after our day on St. Lucia.  We slept in and after breakfast, I got my stuff together and headed up to the Serenity area (adults only) to relax and read for awhile.

We got off the ship around 11am and went to find an internet café.  We always buy internet time on the ship because we need to keep up on business stuff daily but we do quick checks to see that nothing needs our attention and leave any Facebook or email stuff for when we are at an internet café where we can get a half hour for $4 or so.   We spent some time getting caught up on the ‘real world’ and then wandered through the shops in Port Zanté (the cruise terminal) and the market nearby.


We spotted the St. Kitts National Museum as we were walking around that thought that we should check it out as it was just the right speed for our lazy day.  We paid our $3 entrance fee and spent a good hour going through the exhibits and reading about the history of St. Kitts.  It is interesting to get an understanding of places as it gives you a better appreciation for their culture and history.



We got back on the ship around 1:30pm and had some lunch.  The pizza on the Valor was raved about by many people we talked to so I tried some for lunch.  It is a thin crust but it is the lightest crust I have ever tasted on a thin crust pizza.  You could custom order what you wanted and it was definitely worth the time to wait for a nice hot pizza to be done.  Spent the afternoon around the pool, laying in the sun and reading.

Our evening was as low key as our day.  On a cruise with such a port intensive itinerary, it is nice to build in a bit of down time where you don’t have to do anything or go anywhere if you don’t feel like it.
