Since we had heard raves about eating breakfast at the International Cafe we decided to eat there before our tour rather than our usual huge buffet breakfast. We took the elevator down to the 7th floor and saw that Princess had turned the Piazza into quite a Valentine's display!
We couldn't get over the work it must have taken to carve the watermelons!Word we got gotten was correct - the quiche and freshly baked pastries we had were delicious!
We also paid the little bit extra and got cappachino's. After we were done we went down to disembark and met up with Alicia & Chuck, Cheryl & Kelley, and David & Helaine who we were touring with thru Thenford Grey's company. It was great that we all got along as well in person as we had on the internet! Everyone had great senses of humor and we were all pretty easy going. Thenford's brother, Sackville, met us just outside the terminal in a van very similar to Levi's in Dominica. We set out for our first stop which was the Caribe Batik factory.
One thing all the islands do have are colorful buildings and homes
This was a formal garden though we didn't tour it we could see this outside of the entrance
You can easily see the change from city to rainforest area.As we approached Caribe Batik you could see the huge African Salmon Tree they have in their gardens. The closer we got to it the more magnificent it was!
We took some time before heading into the demonstration area of how they put the Batik pattern on the fabric to stroll around their garden area.
