Caribbean escape: Dominica adventure, Barbados relaxation
This January 2015 photo shows Bottom Bay in Barbados. The Caribbean island is relatively easy on the wallet, with easy-to-use public vans to beaches around the island, plus dining options like Oistins Fish Fry, an outdoor bazaar of restaurant shacks serving heaping plates of food.

ROSALIE, Dominica — “Are you sure this is the right way?” I asked, my leg flailing to find another crevice in the tree knots below me. Luca, my husband, responded with a grunt — not very reassuring.
Luca and I are not exactly avid hikers or adrenaline junkies — no skiing, surfing or bungee-jumping for us on a typical vacation. But when the urge to escape the winter grind struck, we didn’t just want to relax on the beach. We also wanted some element of inspiration and adventure — however mild. Only question: Where to go? We decided to make our first trip to the Caribbean, to two islands, Dominica and Barbados, each with its own allure.
