Anse Chastenet vs. AKR

[Tim Ingersoll]

My wife freaked out a little when she figured out what that cute romantic netting hanging around the bed was really for. And that it was really needed.

LOL. You should have heard my wife screech when she saw the big (and I mean tarantula big) spider in our bathroom. She was also a little freaked out by the rats in the jungle, but hey if you want lush you are going to have lots of critters.

We also found the locals in St. Lucia to be a bit cool. They weren't hostile or anything, but in some islands they seem to welcome tourists and are much friendlier.

We have come to call this Caribbean cool. It seems that the poorer the island the cooler the locals. Can't really blame them but it can be uncomfortable at times.
