Day 6 – St. John’s, Antigua

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

 

St. John’s is the capital of Antigua and Barbuda, a vibrant port renowned for its historical significance, including a rich pirate past, a large public market, and nearby historic forts such as Fort Barrington.  The city has experienced multiple damaging events, including earthquakes, a fire, and a hurricane.  Still, the city has been rebuilt to become a popular tourist destination filled with colorful buildings and lively festivals, such as the island’s annual Carnival.

We finally arose at 7:00 am, struggling to open the door and heat the room.  The thermostat was stuck at -30 degrees F!

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
