Down the hatch

 Just because vacation is over doesn't mean I'm ready to let it go. I set out to try the famous Painkiller and Bush wacker drinks that St. Thomas is famous for, but did you know that the banana daiquiri was invented there? Well now you do, and it was added to the list as well. Not gonna lie, the banana daiquiri kicked my butt. I liked the painkiller and loved the bush wacker. 

Vacation Day Six

 Bacon and eggs for breakfast and lots of packing.  Took final pictures at Wild Ginger. Then, we headed to the botanical gardens and the mountain top over look. Tried to visit Black Beard's Castle but Carnival traffic had roads closed.  Flew to Miami then Memphis. 

Vacation Day Five

 We separated again with part of us exploring a new beach. Then Banana Daquris 🍌 with a wonderful seafood dinner by another beach.

Vacation Day Four Thursday

 Today the group split up. Beth, Paul, Paige, Lauren and Gilmar went to a beach to check it out and then to snorkle at Sapphire Beach again. The rest of us stayed and played in the pool. Then a little shopping where I bought something sparkly.

Vacation Day Three

 We caught an early ferry to St. John's.  Ventured to Maho Beach where I saw four wild sea turtles 🐢 and a really large star fish. The sand and waves were perfect. Then we headed to Trunk Bay where we snorkled and saw amazing fish. We shopped at Mongoose Junction and headed back for pizza and beer at Wild Ginger, our home base.

Day Two Coral World

 

Day two Tuesday

 Woke up early to catch sunrise at Sapphire Beach. Then we snorkled there.

Then we visited Linquist Beach. Then we packed up and went to Coral World and Coki Beach. Had to fight iguanas to cross a bridge in Coral world.  Bought a basket made of seaweed.  Then Paul treated everyone to dinner at Hookd.
