Another day and another great day of weather:
Today I was having my friend visit from STT so my husband and I went into down to meet here on the 10am ferry. Our friends figured they would stay in the villa and enjoy the morning to themselves. First thing was to grab our
garbage and dump it one of the dumpsters along the way. Well the closest dumpster to our villa had some visitors hanging out 24/7 so we avoided that one:
We would also see other neighbors along the way:
Since JJ’s was really slow service the other day we figured we would head to the Wharfside shops and check out Mojo Cafe. Across the way, they now have paid parking. It can get a bit pricey if you use it everyday, but we found the convenience outweighed the cost. We ordered huevos rancheros and a couple cups of coffee. While we were waiting for our food, I gave Captain Joe from the Scubadu a call just to reconfirm our sail with him the next day. I got a hold of him and we were all set. Before we knew it our food was served. About 10 minutes total we waited for our food. Now that was quick!
After we were done with our breakfast we had some time to kill. We headed up to St. John Spice and saw Ruth. Now I always have gone to the store but felt funny introducing myself, but my husband persuaded me to do it. So I finally met Ruth after all these years in person. Hi Ruth! It was a pleasure meeting you! Realizing it was getting close for the 10am ferry to arrive, we said our goodbyes and headed to the dock.
My friend is a professional photographer and has numerous pictures of the USVIs, but she wanted to get more of St. John. Well I figured the views from our villa would be perfect. We headed back to our villa where our friends were already relaxing in the pool.
We spent most of our day at the pool and a great time.
I wound up taking out the other 2 grill packs I had ordered from the freezer to defrost. For dinner we had the “Grilled Mahi-Mahi with Passion Fruit Buerre Blanc” and the “Mustard-Grilled Chicken Breast with Honey-Jerk Glaze and
Mango-Avocado Salsa”.
As the sun went down the views took on a different look:
Pretty soon it was time for my friend to be back on the ferry, so my husband and I dropped her off. Until next year I told her! Headed back to the villa to get some sleep since we had to meet Joe at 9:30am at the National Park Dock.

Nothin' better than a fun day with friends at THAT VILLA with THAT VIEW!! 
Did you park at Slimman's parking at Wharfside or is there a new paid parking lot nearby too?? It's worth it for the convenience and can't imagine what parking is like in high season~
