St. Thomas

We’re in St. Thomas, docked at Charlotte Amalie, the capital city of this US Virgin Island.  It has been very interesting in the Caribbean so far; we have been the only ship in port when these islands can get up to 6 to 8 cruise ships at one time.  So there have been no crowds!

Michael took a city tour and did not enjoy it at all. 








I, on the other hand, went to the beach again. The weather was not optimal for beaching, but it is what it is.  We went to Secret Beach at Smith Bay, a tranquil lagoon with white sand and turquoise waters.  While bobbing around in the water, it started to rain; but no worries, I was wet anyway. It was cooler today and less humid with more cloud cover.  I thought the beach from yesterday was much nicer, but it was still an enjoyable experience.


Saw this guy. He was about 2 feet long.



Upon returning to the ship in time for lunch, it started to rain and rain very heavy. So Michael and I decided to spend the afternoon relaxing in our room.
