Day Five - Villa Gravity Strikes Again

Day Five - Villa Gravity Strikes Again, While Dora and Vasco go Fishing

Dora and Vasco had a fishing day planned with Captain Grizz on Gone Ketchin, so they were up and out of the house early. The rest of us took our time getting up after our marathon of a day yesterday.

Image

Once again, Villa Gravity attacked, and we did what we do best. Lounge in the pool, hop in the hot tub, listen to Laurie's fabulous playlist, drink, sing and laugh! Captain Kevin had graciously given us the jug of leftover painkillers (I know, you are shocked there were leftovers :shock:), so we ingeniously blended them up after we ran out of pineapple juice for our pina coladas!! Yummmy.

Image

We had reservations at 6:30 at RhumbLines. Dora and Vasco return from their day of fishing with great tales of the one that got away. We get cleaned up and head down the hill for ... wait for it ... Woody's Happy Hour. You will note by the outfits that, by now, we are honorary employees of Woody's.

We head over to Rhumb Lines, where we order a sampler PuPu platter for the table. Now, I am not a fan of spicy food at all (I am actually quite a wimp 8) but I loved the potstickers, the ribs and the spring rolls so for those who are afraid of the heat, you can find something to eat here! Sorry, again, no food porn :cry: We have another great dinner full of laughs.

Then I make an executive decision. I realize I have been remiss in my duties as Julie the Cruise Director. Is it fair to make these newbies believe that there is only ONE bar on St. John? No. So off we go to the Beach Bar!! They took to it like ducks to water. Fletcher the bartender was awesome, the setting was great and everyone was very happy.

Image

Cousin Kate bought everyone Beach Bar hats which quickly become part of the Blonde Sluts uniform (never mind that they were from another bar).

Image

We head back up to Vistaero for some quality star gazing and end another day on St. John.

I've really enjoyed these trip reports. The best ones make you feel as if you're right there, and certainly make you wish you were right there. And the pictures are great, too!
