Postcard from Antigua and Montserrat

While we were in Antigua we took the ferry over to Montserrat for the day to visit Shan's dad and brother.
Waiting for the ferry.


They gave us a whistle stop tour of some of her favourite places and her gallery.
It was a sad day but we were so glad we went to see the place she loved and called home.
We had lunch at HillTop


Woodland Beach



 Shan's lovely gallery.


This was the only glimpse we had of the Volcano.
 and all too soon it was time to head back to the ferry and back to Antigua.

We went swimming with sting rays at Stingray City!










 It was a wonderful experience.
Travelling around the Island I was so impressed with the painted advertising and signage everywhere.

With Annabel the cat!





I will be back with another postcard soon.

  4. I am not sure where you live, but where you travel to is beautiful! I am glad that you got to be with your friend's family. Like someone else said, a bittersweet trip.

  5. Such beautiful photos, Lyn. Seeing Shan's gallery made me pause - wish I had really known her and had purchased a piece of her artwork, which I loved. I hope your visit, although it was difficult, gave you some solace. xx
