I realize they went thru hurricanes recently and need to get back on their feet, but...The traffic lights are still down. Many stores closed. I paid hard earned and saved money for this cruise and expected to be pleased with every port of call. The streets looked like a slum area. Princess shouldnt go there yet! I went back to the ship very disappointed.

St. John's, Antigua

Walked the streets and did shopping. Cleaner and felt safer

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
All of a sudden, I was off the ship, had my luggage and outside waiting for my ride.
