I can’t believe it is our last week in St Lucia! We have spent most of Monday driving back from the mountains and it is a short week to begin with. The week starts at the Croc Centre where we document a croc being treated for a sore foot. It is quite an amazing ‘operation’ to watch.
The vet invites us in to the pen to watch the process close up. The croc has been secured well, his mouth has been taped up and 4 men sit on him while the vet drains his foot of all the liquid that is making it hard for him to be mobile. The stench is unbearable and I am glad to take my pictures and get out! 
The rest of the day is spent taking photos of the baby crocs and helping to paint one of the pens. This is our last time at the croc centre so we get a chance to pose with the babies and have a bit of fun!
During our last week, we visit the projects of some of the other volunteers and document their activities. 
I visit the garden project where I find the volunteers hard at work weeding and watering and a variety of vegies thriving. The produce is distributed to various needy families in the local community who are delighted to have a share of this fresh produce.
Toward the end of the week 
we visit Estuary Beach for a final sunrise. I love this beach and find it to be the place where I am most inspired. I snap away and come back with more memories of one of the most romantic spots in St Lucia!
Our last game drive of the week is spent in Hluluwe & iMfolozi. The drive turns out to be so amazing that I have done a separate blog post on this day.
