Hi David,
You probably don't remember us, but we certainly remember you. What a great ambassador for your country. We were lucky enough to pick you as our tour guide on the beautiful island of St. Kitts. We saw many islands on our once in a life time cruise to the Caribbean 2010, but St Kitts left a lasting impression, thanks to your humour, knowledge, enthusiasm for your tour and attitude to your tourists/visitors. We would love to return, to what for us was, a paradise on earth and more importantly, to beautiful, polite, kind and welcoming people.
