Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis...

Our arrival in St. Kitts was, once again, too early for sail in photos. We got off the ship following the announcement that the ship was cleared and made our way into town. Another busy day in port with three ships in. Basseterre, the capital of St. Kitts is a very walkable town. After walking to the Berkeley Monument Clock in the town traffic circle and again we, took a detour into the residential section of town, talking with a couple of locals. We walked up to St. George’s Anglican Church…Being a Sunday, the church was open and I was able to get a much closer vantage point for photos. We then swung around by the Wesley Methodist Church. At the city’s heart, we visited the Co-Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception Churches that overlooks Independence Square with its Italian-inspired fountain…reading the plaque in the park, I discovered that St. Kitts was named after St. Christopher. Saint Kitts and Nevis is officially the Federation of Saint Christopher and Nevis…  never knew that!  Returning to the port, we stopped in some shops before returning to the ship. This morning we had very strong winds which subsided and it was a great day in Retreat. Another great day in St. Kitts.
