A President's Trip: Gardens of the Caribbean, aboard the Sea Cloud II
January 18-29, 2005
Spend three nights at a deluxe Barbados beach resort, then
embark on a fabulous 8-night cruise from Barbados to Antigua
aboard Sea Cloud II, sister ship to the historic
Marjorie Merriweather Post yacht, Sea Cloud. Conde
Nast Traveler has rated Sea Cloud Cruises #1 for service
on its Gold List for 2003. We will share the ship with Williams
College and the National Trust.
Enriching the cruise: lecture series by horticulturalists
and experts on Caribbean history, and musical evenings with
concerts by internationally-known artists. Experience the
history of the Caribbean, its tradition of gardening and
plantation life, while savoring the ambience of a classic
sailing ship.
Meet with representatives of the Barbados National Trust;
visit Trust properties including Tyrol Cot and Wildey House;
visit private plantations and gardens, specially opened
for our group; stroll through tropical rain forests and
beautifully-maintained botanical gardens; dance to the music
of a local steel band while enjoying a barbeque dinner on
deck; visit local historical sites (Alexander Hamilton home
on the island of Nevis, and La Pagerie, the birthplace of
Napoleon’s Empress Josephine on Martinique); swim
and snorkel in the warm Caribbean waters; relax on the powdery
white beaches.
