Had an awesome Friday on STJ yesterday...

Post by augie »

Started by meeting Captain John and his stand-in boat for Bella Palma (hope you get you baby back soon Captain!). Snorkeled at Whistling Cay before heading to Soper's Hole and BVI Customs/Immigration. Then across to Norman Island for snorkel stops at The Indians and The Caves, followed by a jump off of the Wille T. in Pirate's Bight.

Then it was on to JVD to finish off a great voyage with our introduction to Mick's Painkillers from the Soggy Dollar Bar at White Bay - what a beautiful place.

After returning to STJ and clearing customs we hopped in the jeep and drove out to Great Cruz Bay for happy hour hosted by Big Cheez, Polly, and their family and friends. We enjoyed their warm hospitality, good drinks and food, and getting to meet some really nice new folks!

By the time we made it back to Mill Ridge the battery in the camera was exhausted, as were the three of us! So no pictures from this day just yet, but as today is our last full day on island, there will be plenty of time to take care of those soon enough. :cry:
Come see us!

I know you lost a day, but still, that went by really quick! Looking forward to your pics.
Going "home" again October 26th!

Augie, I cannot believe you had enough energy for Happy Hour after a day out with Capt John. I'm impressed :D We spent the day Wednesday with him, stand in for the Palma Bella and the rain and you could've stuck a fork in me.... I was done!! So sad your week is coming to the end...so much fun and so little time. Safe Travels home!!
