The following day we dropped anchor in beautiful St. Lucia! We were going to walk about a bit and check out some of the sights. I was excited to see the Piton Water Falls and the Sulphur Springs at Soufrière. I pulled on a tank and sarong over my swimsuit then I realized that I hadn’t packed any walking shoes! I had actually taken them out while I was packing for the trip then I’d decided not to bring them.
This was one occasion when traveling lightly wasn’t well thought out. Luckily Eddie had some weird shoes – a cross between sandals and sneakers with wide velcro straps. I was thankful for them although I had to strap them tightly to my feet because they were a size too big !
