St. Lucia

Our third port on our trip was St. Lucia. We had a such a great day here. The weather was beautiful, our cab driver was awesome, and zip lining in the St. Lucia Rain Forest was AMAZING.
Our ship.
Banana Tree
Cocoa Tree
Yummy Pineapple.
Have you ever wondered where chocolate comes from? Well here it is. Our cab driver went and picked up some fruit and other items while were zip lining. He got us a grapefruit, nutmeg, coconut, and this thing....chocolate.

And this is our fabulous cab driver, Peter. And this is the gigantic machete that Peter has under his seat in his cab. WOW! I asked him if this was legal to carry machetes in cars and he said "Well if I got pulled over by the police they would probably take it." Ya Think... And take one guess what kind of music Peter likes and his favorite singer. I'll give you 100 guesses and you will not even be close..
Are you ready for it.
Country Music....George Jones. WHAT??
Between the gigantic machete and his music taste I don't know which shocked me more.
One of our little pit stops after we got done zip-lining. The lady in the back was selling different items. One thing she had was Banana Ketchup. It's pretty yummy.





This is a view from the fire station we stopped at to take this picture.
This is where a scene from Pirates Of The Caribbean was filmed.





Getting ready to go zip-lining.

The last zip-line we went on and it's called This Is It. It was great.
