jenNYC > The typically bright colors of a house in Roseau
jenNYC > We spend the night at the Anchorage Hotel and Dive Center. It's the one place we don't like - it feels like a big, impersonal hotel. Even if I was a hard-core diver, I wouldn't want to stay here. The room is stuffy and although there's an air conditioner, I open the patio door and windows anyhow, risking mosquitos. With such beautiful weather and in such a beautiful natural place, turning on the air conditioner just doesn't feel right. A SCUBA boat docks at our hotel.
jenNYC > Most of the shops in Roseau are small, some of them no more than shacks with a few dozen canned goods on the back shelf. A small Chinese population runs a scattering of tourist trinket stores, laundries, and restaurants. The emphasis is on necessities and basics, there simply isn't the purchasing power for more. Many stores have ancient cash registers, scales and display cases. The restaurants look empty of either food or people, so we explore the streets for a bite to eat. We follow the locals to the favorite places – a bakery selling tasty fruit tarts and coconut cakes, a street vendor selling smoked fish sandwiches.
jenNYC > Day 5: Whale Watching and Roseau We drive back down to Roseau to explore the town before whale watching in the afternoon. Maybe it's because I haven’t seen other Caribbean port towns to compare it to, but Roseau is hardly the “pastel colored oasis” our guide book describes it as. It’s a little too dilapidated and chaotic for an oasis, but it definitely is interesting.
