TradeWind Travels: Life on the 17° Parallel: If You Teach School. . .

If You Teach School. . .

"You annoy your family, friends and perfect strangers by correcting their grammar."

How true is that?

This is today's entry on a page-a-day calendar that my mother gave me for Christmas, called "Tips for Teachers," filled with tips, inspirational quotes, and words of wisdom for educators.

I do my best to proof the blog (there's no spell check option), and I do a good job, but every once in a while I'll reread something from weeks ago, and find a typo, and I freak out! R (as English is her 2nd language) is no longer aloud to post without sending it through me first. I know, I know. I'm a b*tch.

Paradise Island

This blog's purpose is part travel journal, part photo blog and part travel guide to St. Kitts and the Lesser Antilles. Please let me know if there's something about the island that you'd like to learn more about, and I will write about it here!

GETTING HERE

The only major US airline that flies to St. Kitts is American Airlines. If you can't get one of those flights, just book a ticket to Puerto Rico, Antigua, or St. Maarten. There are two island airlines that I know of: Caribbean Sun Airlines and Liat. Both fly from all of those islands to St. Kitts. If you're coming from Europe, your best bet is to catch the daily Paris-St. Maarten flight on Air France, and then hop over to the island on a CSA or Liat flight. If you'd rather float by boat, check out the Link Ferries, which specialize in island hopping.

ISLAND LINKS

I'm compiling a list of links for travellers to the island:

Doctor Y/Doc Tory This is a link to a site put together by some friends who have lived on the island for several years. They have terrific pictures!
Discover St. Kitts Nevis Beaches This is a link I found earlier in the year that gave me some information on what to do/where to go on the island. It's not the greatest, but the web presence here isn't terrific, either, so it does what it can. I also subscribed to their newsletter, but I didn't learn anything not already on the site. The site has some nice pictures, though.
