Maho Art, Trinidad Charlie's Farm, Friends of VINP seminars?
This May's trip will include the Moms. They aren't sun babies like me and think they might want a break from spending every day at the beach (crazy, I know....). I am exploring a few activities that I think they might enjoy, but I'd love to hear from others who may have tried these. Any information from anyone who has participated in any of the following would be greatly appreciated:
1) Maho Campground Art Classes: We are staying right next to Maho Camps, and they have lots of art classes (painting, clayworks, glass blowing, etc.). Has anyone ever taken one of these classes? If so, what was the experience like?
2) Walking tour of Trinidad Charlie's farm: the MIL would get a big kick out of this. It might even make up for me making her climb on a bucket and shoving her rear into the back of a Jeep on the last trip. Anyone done it? Is it worthwhile?
3) Friends of the National Park Seminars: looks like they have classes on West Indian Cooking, gardening, and the like. Not sure what's on for May yet, but this looks like an interesting option.
Any other activities like these?
Thanks!

Maho Art
My grandaughter and her best friend took the glassblowing class last summer. 3 hrs for I think $65.00. Hubby took lots of pics as they learned how to blow, shape, color glass. They each made a starfish, paperweight and stamped window ornament. Just know it's hot as Hades but a fascinating process. I also know there are lots of ceramics classes given, from creating pottery on a wheel to other methods. Sign up as the activity desk if you want to take a class. Jan
