First Day in Dominica

We wanted to see the sights around Krista and Josh's apartment.  We first went out to the beach and Josh was explaining where some of the other islands were.  I thought this was a classic:

After we got our signals together, Josh and Krista took us on a walking tour.

There's a lot of building going on.  They build the first two floors, people move in and then decide later if they want to continue with more floors.  Many of the buildings have a "to be continued" look to them.

Lots of steep windy roads make a morning walk a real work-out.

The movie The Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed here.  Many of the sights along the coast seemed familiar.

These huts are on the beach right by K&J's apartment and they were used by the film crew.

We snorkeled around this pier.  I wish we had had an underwater camera.  The fish and coral were beautiful.  I kept expecting an eel to come flying out of the coral to attack me.  

We stopped long enough to pose for the camera.

It is very warm and humid, but we are surviving even without a/c.  It is really expensive so we are being brave and seeing how long we can tough it out.  Probably won't last more than a week. So long for now!
