Return flight

Various details have led me to plan my return to back along more or less the same route I took on the southbound trip. Thus, I will go ahead and pay Guyana their annoying fee for nothing just in...

Barths approval

I got my checkout in the early 80's. Wasn't such a big deal, actually. I've been back many times, but the last time would have been in the 90's. I wonder if there is a currency requirement? I...

Lesser Antilles

CS,

Sorry - I didn't see your reply when you posted it.
