St. Kitts

St
Kitts - the real reason for our being on this cruise. We really wanted to
try the "new" excursion on the St Kitts Scenic Railway but were appalled
at the ship's price of $89 each. So we planned to take the train in the
afternoon on our own. We found the office but they would not sell us
tickets, protecting the revenue for the ship! So we hired a cab and toured
the fort and a botanical garden. At the fort, the cab driver told us the
train had derailed - AGAIN! - and all the drivers were being called to
pick up passengers. No one was injured but we found out that it has only
made the trip ONCE! without derailing. We saw the tipped car. Suggest you
not pick that trip and not buy stock in their company either! Cab driver
says the train fee is $50 if you are not on a ship.
