Greetings from Cruz Bay!

Post by ATG »

Coming to you live from Unit 2W of Lavendar Hill (there is a computer in the unit with free dial up internet access - how cool is that?!). Just back from dinner up at Pastory Gardens, it's actually chilly out there with the tradewinds blowing!
L&L delivered our Jeep Liberty today and off we went on a drive up North Shore Road in search of the beach of the day. OF course we had to stop at every overlook, why is it that no matter how many times you stop at the Trunk Bay overlook and no matter how many pictures you have taken in the past, you just cannot believe what you are looking at and must take even more pictures? Just breathtaking! As for the beaches, checked out Hawksnest but huge waves were breaking (!), stopped at Gibney but water rough and no beach, drove by the parking lot at Trunk and it was packed, so we thought, Maho, that's got to be calm, and so it was. Up and over those corkscrews before Peter Bay we went (still hate those, scares the crap out of me!), noticed some new house being built along the right side of the road at Peter Bay, stopped at the Francis/Maho overlook, then pulled the Jeep right up to the beach at Maho, and unloaded the gear. Usually Maho is like a lake, today there was some swell coming in, but not as bad as the other beaches.
Well, time to go enjoy the breezes out on the deck and listen to the clanking of the boats in the harbor....I can't believe this is November!!!!

Did you play golf at Pastory? It is a neat little course.

How is it hiking up Lavender Hill? I got exhausted just looking at it each night we walked by.
