Sulfur Springs Spa

Yesterday we headed to my favorite spot on the Island, Soufriere. It is a quaint little fishing village right next to the world famous Pitons, the Grande Piton and the Petite Piton. When Tony and Neisha were here they, along with their two sons Cole and Keaton, hiked up to the top of the Grande Piton! There was no hiking going on yesterday, but we did go to the "Sulfur Springs Spa" and had a mud bath! If you ever come to St. Lucia don't leave without doing the mud bath, it leaves your body so nice and soft, and makes you feel years younger! We stopped and took pictures of Claudius the Snake Man and then stopped by to endure the freezing cold water fall. We had the remaining "White Girls" , Cam and Licia with us. Licia JnPaul is the 19 year old I told you about earlier. She was born and raised in Soufriere and we drove way out in the country to see her home and family. They live in the country close to the Rain Forest, and raise everything they eat, including pigs, chickens, rabbits and goats. Their home is humble and so is her family, they were very kind to us and it was the highlight of the day to meet them. Licia left her home to get an education at the college in Castries. She lives with her cousin Merlisa (Mel) very close to where we live. Every few weeks she gets so homesick she has to take the long bus ride home. After being there I know why she loves it, it is quiet, peaceful and feels like a little bit of heaven.
