A friend of Jennie's took her, Josh ( Jennie's 15yr. old son) & I out on his boat. What a great day that was. We saw a Sea Turtle! It was awesome. Of course lots of amazing yachts! We also went through an area of small islands where the pirates used to sail through. There was a rock called Cannonball Rock where the pirates had to unload their cannons before they could sail up to the island. You

Jennie & I were going to the beach, but it was a cloudy day so we went to Mountain Top. What a wonderful view! There are shops and a restaurant/bar up there. We found a sale on flip flops so the day was not a loss!Jennie says....Everything sounds better when it's followed by "....In the Caribbean. It's true, think about it: I have to go to work in the Caribbean, or I have to clean the house in

The gallery that I work for is located on Main Street. This was taken a little after 5:00 PM. As you can see all of the shops have closed. During the day this street is bustling with all types of people, vehicles with loud music and activities. I am entertained by the daily "circus" that passes by the gallery. I have seen some characters! But as soon as the tourists are back on the cruise ships

I think this yacht looks like something that would belong to Batman, so I call it the Bat Yacht. I first saw it when I was on St. John and since then I see it everywhere. This picture was taken at Magen's Beach on St. Thomas.

This is the beach that you can see from the balcony. It was quite a trek getting down there and VERY hard to walk back up to the house. Part of it was a paved road then we took a trail "through the jungle" (that's what I call it) that leads to huge rocks that we had to climb up, over, around.....then we made it to the beach. Mom & Kelly, I wont take you to this beach. While walking through the

Behold the long awaited pictures! Or at least some. We do not have high speed internet so the amount of pictures that I post today will depend upon my attention span. So maybe I should say THE PICTURE!This is the front of the house where I am staying.

This blog was created at the request of my sister. According to her instructions I am expected to keep the family up to date on "My Caribbean Adventures" by regularly posting entries along with photos. My first thought was WHAT?! A blog? A postcard isn't good enough? Personally, I think the traditional postcard is the way to go. The picture has been taken for you, the tiny writing space does not
