Want to thank Rick

Post by Connie »

Rick, wanted to thank you for organizing the get-together at Honeymoon Beach on the 4th. Is was fun AFTER we made it ON the beach.

I'll ge to a trip report, but for those who don't know....

Rick sent out a little information on how to get to Honeymoon. Not knowing where we wer going (husband and I), it seemed we had 3 choices:

Take a cab.
Do the trail.
Walk from Cruz Bay.

So....we decide, no big deal, we can do the 1.5 miles. We're right near Mongoose Junction and I wanted to make sure that we were headed in the right direction. I asked a nice local if we were headed the right way...she says "Yes, but you aren't walking are you"? I said, sure. She says "It's pretty far, but good luck!".

So we start, and we're walking, then we turn a corner and we see this hill. Ok, we'll try it.

You have to remember that we're carrying all our snorkel gear, a cooker and I have a beach bag that weights about 10 lbs. Now we're sweating, and we're huffing and puffing. I look at my husband and he looks like he's going to start crying.

I get in front of him and we're just determined to get there. One foot in front of the other. We get to the first overlook, sit down on the wall, sweating our butts off when here comes a Taxi. Yeah!!!

Guess who's on the taxi?? The same girl that told us we were headed in the right direction.

Thanks Rick, my legs hurt for 2 days :lol:

Nice to meet everybody. We really enjoyed.

Next installment...A STT girl takes a look around STJ.
