Come on . . . dish! I have to know what happened to make St. Lucia a bad memory! I only have great ones of the place and the people . . .
?? ??
The people were incredible, friendly, the most friendly people we ever met. The locals anyway. We had a lot of trouble with out flights, we got cancelled in San Juan, and several times in St. Lucia.
We stayed at Anse Chastanet, it's on the side of the mountain. Nice for honeymooning couple, not good for divers. We were exhausted after the dives, and then we had t o climb to get to our rooms.
The resort, it took a lot of work to get them to help us try and get a flight home. No a/c in the rooms. I can live without, but after diving, we had to lay under fans that didn't cool anybody down. Most people were so tired of diving that they just stayed on the beach so they didn't have to walk to the rooms. You never new where you had to eat up or down stairs. Dad made about 7 trips one day, I thought he was going to get heat stroke one day.
Then the people that worked there that weren't locals, preferred if we ate downstairs on the nights we could.
As far as divers go they weren't too interested in offering any sort of help. We spent alot of time tippin' the staff tryin' to get fans back they'd tell them to take from our rooms.
I got some more stuff that went on, but it's on mom's laptop and I need to go through it.
This is one of the divemasters, Victor, he's in the Guiness Book of World Records, for the most bottom time. He's got about 22,000+ dives, that equals about 6+ years underwater.
Here's my sister, on the day we're tryin' to get out. We'd been jerked around all morning tryin' to get a flight. It's about 9 in the mornin' and she's up at the bar orderin' drinks.
