Dominica November 2005
A week-long trip to the mountainous Carribean island of Dominica
(pronounced "Dom-in-EEK-a"). Primary rainforest covers over two thirds
of the island, making it arguably the most untouched island in the
Caribbean. This is not your typical tourist's Caribbean. The best beach
is accesible only by rappeling down the side of a cliff, and the loudest
nightlife hotspot is 15 feet in the air, in a treehouse surrounded by
the cacophony of jungle sounds.
Dates of travel: Nov 18, 2005 to Nov 26, 2005
Duration of travel: 8 days

The pool is cold, but Andrew has fun jumping off the rocks into the pool below. We take a longer trail back, and I'm glad because the trail through the rainforest is gorgeous. I just can't get enough of the green.
A land crab greets us at the pool. He's big, but he seems even bigger when you're taken by surprise. These guys can get huge, and apparently are quite tasty.
