PRACTICAL NEUROLOGY: AN UPDATE AND REFRESHER FOR THE GENERALIST
This course will provide a working knowledge of the most common neurological problems and reinforce principles of clinical diagnosis while reviewing the symptoms and signs of most major neurological diseases. The seminar will also present clear, practical guidelines for managing these common problems including how to integrate laboratory tests and imaging techniques into the patient's evaluation. Finally, the current treatment for these disorders will be developed in sufficient detail to permit independent management or active participation in care with the neurologist.
Emphasis will be placed on clinical diagnosis and practical treatment with introduction of clinical neuroscience as needed to clarify management issues.
Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to: recognize the symptoms and signs of the most common neurological diseases; apply fundamental disease concepts to patient management; educate their patients regarding the basic concepts and natural history of these diseases and participate with their patients and consulting neurologists in decisions regarding modern disease therapy and prevention.
This seminar will be relevant to family practitioners, internists, neurologists and others who manage patients with neurological disorders.

PORTS OF CALL
San Juan, Puerto Rico
As your vessel navigates the deep blue channel into San Juan Bay, you are greeted by the same formidable sight that once deterred empires and pirates like Sir Francis Drake: the stone ramparts of Castillo San Felipe del Morro. While the age of swashbucklers is long past, their wake has left an island of profound national treasures, making San Juan far more than a point of departure—it is a destination demanding its own chapter in your travelogue. We encourage you to bookend your cruise with a few days here, allowing the city’s rhythm to fully envelop you.
**Pre-Cruise Immersion: A Walk Through 500 Years of History**
Arrive a day or two early to decompress and transition into vacation mode. Settle into your accommodations, perhaps a restored colonial hotel within the walled city or a chic beachfront resort in nearby Condado. Your first exploration should be on foot, through the enchanting streets of Old San Juan. The blue-hued adoquín cobblestones, cast from furnace slag and brought over as ballast in Spanish galleons, pave your way through a vibrant grid of pastel-hued townhomes with intricate ironwork balconies overflowing with bougainvillea.
Dedicate your first full day to the UNESCO World Heritage sites that define the city’s skyline. Begin at the six-level citadel of **Castillo San Felipe del Morro**. Walk the sprawling, windswept lawn where soldiers once drilled and children now fly kites, and explore the sentry boxes, barracks, and cannon batteries that guarded the entrance to the Caribbean for centuries. The panoramic views of the Atlantic are simply breathtaking. From there, stroll along the city walls to its larger counterpart, **Castillo San Cristóbal**, a masterpiece of 18th-century military engineering designed to protect against land-based attacks. Venture into its tunnels and stand in the famous “Garita del Diablo” (Devil’s Sentry Box), shrouded in legend.
For lunch, step away from the main thoroughfares and find a local fonda for an authentic taste of *comida criolla*. This is your opportunity to try a classic *mofongo*—a savory mound of mashed plantains, garlic, and olive oil, often filled with succulent pork, shrimp, or chicken. In the afternoon, delve deeper into the city’s heritage. Visit the final resting place of the island’s first governor, Juan Ponce de León, at the magnificent **Catedral de San Juan Bautista**. Nearby, tour **La Casa Blanca**, a fortified residence built for his family in 1521, now a museum offering a glimpse into 16th- and 17th-century life. As evening descends, enjoy a handcrafted cocktail at a rooftop bar overlooking the harbor before indulging in a sophisticated dinner at one of Old San Juan’s celebrated restaurants, where chefs artfully fuse Taíno, Spanish, and African culinary traditions.
**Post-Cruise Exploration: Beyond the City Walls**
After your cruise, with the relaxed pace of the sea still with you, use your extra days to explore the island’s diverse character. Venture beyond the old city to experience modern Puerto Rican life and stunning natural beauty.
One compelling option is a day trip to **El Yunque National Forest**, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System. A short drive from San Juan, this lush wonderland offers well-maintained hiking trails that lead you through a canopy of giant ferns and tabonuco trees, past cascading waterfalls, and to observation towers with sweeping views of the coast. The cool, misty air and the symphony of coqui frogs provide a restorative contrast to the sun-drenched city.
For a different kind of cultural immersion, explore the dynamic neighborhood of Santurce. Known for its vibrant street art and murals, Santurce is the city’s creative pulse. Visit the **Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico**, which houses a comprehensive collection of Puerto Rican art from the 17th century to the present. In the evening, experience the energy of **La Placita de Santurce**. A humble farmer’s market by day, it transforms at night into a bustling open-air block party, where locals and visitors alike gather to enjoy live music, dance salsa in the streets, and sample food from the surrounding kiosks and restaurants. It’s an authentic, joyous, and unforgettable experience.
Alternatively, you can dedicate your post-cruise time to pure relaxation. The golden sands of Isla Verde and Condado Beach are lined with resorts and beach clubs, offering the perfect setting to unwind with a book and a piña colada—a cocktail famously invented right here in San Juan. Or, for a taste of the island’s most famous export, take a ferry across the bay to Cataño for a tour of the **Casa Bacardí** distillery, where you can learn about the history of rum and master the art of mixing the perfect mojito.
San Juan is a city of layers, where colonial history, vibrant arts, world-class cuisine, and breathtaking nature converge. By extending your stay, you transform your cruise from a simple voyage into a deep, enriching cultural journey, allowing you the time and space to truly connect with the heart and soul of the “Island of Enchantment.”
Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, U.S.V.I.
Charlotte Amalie is one of the Caribbean’s most dynamic and bustling ports, a place where vibrant commerce and stunning natural beauty exist side-by-side. While its reputation as a duty-free shopping mecca is well-earned, the true charm lies in knowing how to navigate its offerings.
The historic downtown is a compact grid of Danish colonial architecture, where 18th-century stone warehouses now house an extensive array of jewelry, liquor, and electronic stores. For a genuine sense of the old city, step away from the main thoroughfares and explore the quiet stone-paved alleys. A worthwhile challenge is the climb up the historic “99 Steps” (actually 103) for rewarding views over the harbor.
For many, the highlight of St. Thomas is escaping the city bustle. The Skyride to Paradise Point offers the definitive panoramic photograph of your ship in the turquoise harbor—it’s a tourist staple for good reason. Of course, the beaches are a primary draw. Magens Bay is the island’s most famous stretch of sand; it’s undeniably beautiful, but expect crowds and an entrance fee. For a different experience, consider Sapphire Beach for its excellent snorkeling right offshore or the more tranquil Lindquist Beach, a protected part of a nature park.
Practical Tip: Getting around is typically done via open-air “safari” taxis. These are multi-passenger trucks that operate on set routes with fixed, per-person fares. Confirm the price to your destination with the driver before you depart to ensure a smooth and enjoyable day exploring the island.
Basseterre, St. Kitts
St. John's, Antigua
St. John's is the vibrant gateway to Antigua, an island that offers a compelling blend of classic Caribbean leisure and significant British naval history. While the port city itself is a bustling hub of colorful colonial-era architecture and duty-free shopping at Heritage Quay, the island's true treasures require a short journey.
For anyone with an interest in history, the essential destination is Nelson's Dockyard. Located in English Harbour (a scenic 30-minute taxi ride), this meticulously restored 18th-century naval base is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only continuously working Georgian dockyard in the world. It’s a living museum where you can walk the same cobblestones as Admiral Nelson, explore the Dockyard Museum, and enjoy lunch at a waterside café. For a breathtaking perspective, arrange for your driver to take you up to the Shirley Heights lookout for one of the most iconic panoramic views in the Caribbean.
Of course, Antigua is legendary for its beaches. While the claim of 365 beaches is a charming piece of local lore, you only need one for a perfect day. Dickenson Bay is a popular choice, offering calm waters, beach bars, and water sports. For a more serene experience, ask a driver to take you to the powdery sands of Valley Church Beach or Ffryes Beach on the southwest coast.
Our advice: Plan your day. The best of Antigua lies beyond the immediate port. A pre-arranged taxi or a shore excursion is the most efficient way to experience the island's unique combination of historical depth and stunning natural beauty.
Castries, St. Lucia
St. Lucia stands apart from its Caribbean neighbors, defined by a dramatic, volcanic landscape rather than just its coastline. The island’s icons are the majestic Pitons, twin emerald peaks rising sharply from the sea—a UNESCO World Heritage site that forms one of the most breathtaking vistas in the tropics.
From the port in Castries, visitors face a pleasant choice, as the island’s prime attractions are geographically distinct. The quintessential St. Lucian experience lies to the south, near the town of Soufrière. Reaching it requires a commitment: either a winding, scenic drive of over an hour or a faster, highly recommended boat excursion. This journey rewards you with up-close views of the Pitons, a visit to the Sulphur Springs—the world's only “drive-in volcano”—and the chance to take a therapeutic mud bath in its mineral-rich pools.
For those preferring a more relaxed day closer to port, the areas north of Castries offer their own appeal. Marigot Bay, a stunning natural harbor framed by lush hills, is a short journey away and perfect for a quiet lunch with a view. Further north, Rodney Bay presents a more lively atmosphere with the beautiful expanse of Reduit Beach, waterfront restaurants, and shops. Nearby, Pigeon Island National Landmark provides a mix of military history, gentle hiking trails, and panoramic views of the coastline.
Closer to the ship, the Castries Market offers an authentic slice of local life with its vibrant stalls of spices, produce, and handmade crafts.
Bridgetown, Barbados
Barbados presents a polished and substantial Caribbean experience, anchored by its capital, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison offer a genuine sense of place, where British colonial architecture stands alongside vibrant Bajan life. The city core is compact enough to explore, with landmarks like the Parliament Buildings and the Careenage marina providing a backdrop that feels more like a historic town than a simple beach stop.
Beyond the city, the island's offerings are diverse. For a unique natural wonder, Harrison's Cave offers a stunning underground tram tour through crystallized limestone caverns. For a taste of the island's most famous export, a visit to the Mount Gay Rum Distillery provides both a history lesson and a tasting. Of course, the beaches are world-class. Just a short taxi ride from the port, Carlisle Bay is a magnificent crescent of white sand with calm, turquoise water, perfect for swimming and snorkeling over several shipwrecks teeming with marine life. For a more serene scene, the west coast, known as the "Platinum Coast," is lined with idyllic stretches like Paynes Bay and Mullins Beach.
Barbados is not a rugged, off-the-beaten-path destination; it is well-developed and organized. Taxis are plentiful and regulated (though it's always wise to confirm the fare beforehand). This makes it an excellent port for independent exploration, offering a rewarding balance of accessible history, natural beauty, and sophisticated relaxation.
