We had a nice little view backs towards Basseterre from Rocky's

Here is Brian hacking up a coconut for Cory to try


Hanging out at Mr. X's Shiggidy Shack for dinner

Brad, Cory, Justin and Jin

After dinner

Here are some shots from our drive around the island. This is a cool old church right next to the water on the far end of the island

And here is a section of the road around the same area of the island that is filled with tons of palm trees

This picture is from orientation week, during one of our first days here. We were downtown getting our driver's licenses and vehicles registered, and we stopped at a vendor downtown for lunch....johnny cakes and chicken. The sandwiches were soooo good, maybe because johnny cakes kind of taste like donuts. Anyway, this is us eating our lunch with other people from our orientation group...Brad and Cory on the left, and Dan, his mom, and his cousin Bobby (who is a mechanic and helped all of us buy reliable cars!)

Here is a pretty flower on Cory's school campus

And Cory's class, doing a meet and greet excercise during orientation (you can see Cory in the middle with his brown shirt and green shorts)

Another day during orientation, they brought Cory's class up to Brimstone Fortress for lunch. Except that it wasn't quite as sunny and nice as the first time we went, and it poured down rain the entire time. Here is his entire class trying to squeeze under a little porch and under the lunch tent to keep dry


Here is Cory with Holly and Brian on that same day at Brimstone (and Joleigh is hiding behind Cory's head)

After the rain finally stopped, Justin led an impromptu reading session outside of our bus. Cory and I had purchased a book about Wilbert the island pig for Cory's niece Reilly, and Justin thought everyone would like to hear the story out loud. Joleigh seemed to enjoy it

And finally, after our rainy time at the Fortress, our bus driver Mr. Rogers took us on a narrated tour of the entire island. Our favorite stop was Black Rock. It is a beach on the far end of the island that is entirely made up of volcanic rock. Very pretty
