Mark, that's interesting about the language - while walking through the port, my brother and I actually stopped speaking English, switched to German, and the children (and adults as well) left us alone. Jo-Ann, we came into port via a cruise ship, and it WAS Dominica (what kind of person doesn't know where she travels?!). Our cruise ship workers unloaded old, dirty mattresses and linens, then locals loaded them into the bed of an old teal pickup truck and drove up through the streets as a man sat on the top of the mattress stack to hold it down. Our guide there told us that Dominica has been a poor island nation since it gained its independence, and that they're trying to bring commerce to their country by opening a cruise ship port. And, for YOUR information, Jo-Ann, many places are used for filming television shows and movies; this practice doesn't make the said place any more special. Watch "The Deer Hunter" - does THAT jungle look like a place you'd want to visit?
