I’m delighted to welcome our second female writer, Anne McLoughlin (the author of the historical novels ‘Lives Apart’ and ‘Lives Without End’), who has very kindly written a delightful travelogue entitled ‘A Caribbean Cruise Diary (2005)’ for us. It is a lively account of a week-long cruise, with a group of friends, around the Caribbean islands of Puerto Rico, St Thomas, St Maarten, Antigua, Barbados and St Lucia, sailing aboard the Serenade of the Seas. The cruise was organized by Royal Caribbean. Pour yourself a drink, sit down, and enjoy the journey!
