    Day 6: St. Kiits. - ATV Tour

     

     

    This was one of the other excursions I was really, really looking forward to. Just because its the most fun, adventurous. We booked this one with Carnival, honestly because I had no time for further research. By the time we booked, they only had the 2:00 PM one available. They have 2 more times which are at 8:00 am and 11:00 am I believe. Ideally, I would of gone with the 8:00 am, just because you have the rest of the day to enjoy and do whatever, but all sold out. We were off the ship around 11:30 or so, and we just hanged out by a bar where you could actually get cheap beer and - check this out.... FREE WIFI!! When I found out... I was in heaven !!! hahaha. I had left my iphone on the ship, & I actually went back for it :eek::D So for a good 2 hours we were just having some drinks while enjoying some free wifi. I was able to comunnicate and email some friends and family back home...which was awesome!!!!! After taking a whole bunch of pictures etc...finally it was time for our excursion!!! We were no more than 10. There is a sign right at the entrance so you cant miss it. It took about 10 minutes I would say to get to our excursion spot and the ATVs.

     

    Overall : Excursion was great. This was my first time, so I cant believe they had me as the first one of the group, basically leading everyone else... ugh, i TRIED TO NOT BE SLOW!! lOl. Actually, I got the hang of it quick, it was fuuuunnnnnn i TELL YA, The place we went to was also beautiful, it had such views, while going up the mountain the tour guide briefly gives you a little history of the Island, he makes you aware of the plants, vegetables, different flowers, fruits..etc. Once up the hilLls we saw goats, cows, rabbits, all sort of animals, then we were taken to a natural river... and finally just taking in all the breathtaking views. I never felt like I was in danger, it was fun, adventurous...totally worth it. The whole excursion lasted about 3 hours. between stops for pictures etc. After, we went to a beautiful home there, trying to remember who owns it...they give you some refreshments, watermelon fruit, brownies.. and after you cool down...then you are off back to the ship. I enjoyed it, My advice would be try and book the earliest times, so that it is not so hot, also, go reaally comfortable..closed shoes are obligatory... and they provide you with water. If you haven't done this before, like myself- don't worry...they really teach you very well and help you on how to function the ATVs correctly. Super fun!!! ;):p

     

    Okay..Pictures time.... :D

    Thank you for reading, and no problem at all !! Thanks again!:D

  3. Next on the agenda was decorating the door, now my son thought mom was crazy for doing this, but after a late night of drinking he informed me it was a great idea, made it very easy for him to find the room!:p He also later noticed people trying to open other people's door because they had forgotten their room number and of course all doors look alike!

  4. I'm really enjoying your review. My cruise sails exactly 5 months from today. Were your formal nights the Sea Day and the St. Lucia day? I'm like you - I'll wear something nice to dinner and then change into something comfortable for the rest of the evening. :)

     

    Thank you. :) yea formal night was sea day and thursday st lucia day, if im not mistaken. Its just so much more comfy to relax and enjoy the rest of the night :) hehe

  5. You are an amazing person to spend all this time putting a review up along with pictures. We will be sailing on Nov 18th same itinerary with Victory and I really appreciate all of your efforts A++++...Thanks so much. Your pictures of the cruise and of yourself are gorgeous !

     

    Aww thank you, You know.. I really do appreciate it because I wont lie, it does take me some time to add and sort through all the pictures I have, but knowing how much you guys enjoy it, plus that it gives you a better view of your own experience to come, it gives me a great feeling of satisfaction to continue the reviews. Thats why I do it :) So thank you, very very much .. !! I wish you an amazing cruise on Nov 18th :):)

  6. After dinner, I changed into my most comfortable shirt, bought on the cruise.. I love this shirt :D and then headed to the Lido deck to relax and enjoy a movie. Its sooo relaxing out there, mostly every night I think they have the times for the different movies.. Its pretty cool, and relaxing after the hectic day and all the food. And then we call it a day. Till tomorrow - St. Kitts.
