Two weeks ago I went with the spouses to a couple of the tourist sites here on the island. It was amazing. It is so beautiful here, and pictures just don't do it justice. Our first stop was a place called Titou Gorge. It is a gorge that you swim through and once inside there is a waterfall. The water is FREEZING! (The coldest water you have EVER felt, yes Lee that is right, the coldest.) And it is pretty deep, so you have to swim through it, you can't just wade through. Once you get inside there is a current from the waterfall, and it is pretty strong. They did some filming for Pirates of the Caribbean here. It was so beautiful.
This is the entrance to the gorge.

Our next stop was Trafalgar, it is two amazing water falls. They call one of them the mother and the other the father.

The last stop was Screws Spas. This is a bunch of warm sulfur springs. They were really nice to just relax in. They actually look kind of gross, you can't see in them because they are so yellow, but thankfully they didn't smell. On the way I was thinking it was going to stink, but I was pleasantly surprised.

You really do live in paradise, except the fact that you dont always have water and there are no grocery stores! I guess you have your trade offs.
