Handsome Seamus
I was asking R about what the dogs look like on the island (there a bunch of loose island dogs). I sent a picture I found on the web of a stray in Trinidad and asked if the Kittitian strays looked the same. She said no, and went in search of another picture.
The next email I got was totally unrelated to island dogs. It was a picture of this champion Borzoi.
R sent it because the dog looks so much like our handsome boy, Seamus, a sled dog (which is a mix of husky for durability, border collie for the homing sense, and Borzoi/Greyhound for speed). Do you see the similarity?
Seamus is amazing, don't you think?

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.
