St. Thomas

St. Thomas was our first port. We decided that it would be a good beach day. So we woke up early got a taxi, the driver decided to take us on the mountain path and show us the island, the roads were straight uphill it felt like the tropical version of San Fran. We eventually found ourselves on the beautiful Coki Beach. For the first couple hours we had it completely to ourselves!! It pays to wake up early, so much fun!!

Sarah and Matt Hale
Matt also turned the big 3-0 this year so we decided to do the trip together!!

Matt, Sarah and Sean did some snorkeling. According to what they told me there was a wall of fish that was just amazing to swim through. Fish everywhere.



This was the bar where the locals would hang out. Since we were positioned right in front of it (the only shade on the beach) we got a lot of offers for alcohol. One local who was smoking some weed claimed he was blowing the smoke in our direction in hopes of getting us high so we would buy some beer. So funny and annoying.

Iguanas were everywhere. This one was camped out on the walk way back to the boat.

I took the long way around the iguana. Sean thought it was funny.



Our first formal night!!

hey, i would have walked around the iguana also. it's kindof like a dog.....you know, the big dog owner always says, "well that's the first time he's ever bitten anybody".
