Joseph and I are back from St. Lucia. Our trip was fantastic despite a rough start and ending. We missed our flight leaving Atlanta Airport on Saturday, March 7th and had to drive back to Atlanta the next day to catch a 9:30 am flight. We actually drove to Atlanta Friday night, the 6th, stayed the night in a hotel and still missed our flight the next morning. Instead of staying another night in Atlanta we drove 2 1/2 hours home to spend the night with the dogs, woke up at 3:00 am Sunday morning and drove back to Atlanta. We made sure to get to the airport 2 1/2 hours before departure time to ensure we made our flight!
Last night we arrived in Atlanta, from St. Lucia, an hour late. It took us over 2 hours to get our luggage and get thru customs. It was REALLY frustrating, considering we had a 2 1/2 hour drive home. We arrived home after 14 hours of traveling....Although we walked thru our door at 2:30 am it was great to be home and great to see the dogs!
As for the trip, we stayed at the Stonefield Resort, near the Gros and Petit Piton. This area, near the "town" of Soufriere was the best part of the island. It's very natural and lush. If you haven't been to St. Lucia, it's worth a visit. Make sure to eat at Dasheene, the restaurant at Ladera Resort. And, if you have the bucks, stay there for one night or more. It's unbelievable.
