We left Taboo and headed to White Bay! First stop is Ivan's. It was a quiet day. I hop behind the bar, make 4 painkillers and grab a Presidente for Capt John. The boys and the Capt where hanging out in the water, securing anchors and trying to add pics to a Tweet.
L was hanging in the hammock

I was getting scammed by an old woman in a tiara
Image
Her and her speedo wearing husband were telling me that they live on STT and she likes to take pictures whereever they go with her most recent pageant sash and tiara. I thought they were so cute and fun until I was telling Capt John all about it. He laughed and said that she tells everyone that and that the pageants are probably not even real :lol:

We pull up anchor and head to Soggy Dollar. I get my free drink and grill Mick to no avail so we head to Seddy's. L gets her wish
Image
We were sitting outside and Rachel came out and told us to come in because it was going to pour. We went in and it downpoured. I ran out in the rain to get Rachel's dog since I was already wet. This was my buddy for the rainstorm
Image

We must have hung out there for at least an hour or two and had a great time. L ran into a charter capt she knew and I got to chat with Seddy and Wendell. We headed back to the boat and looked over and saw a great rainbow. Low and small. It was perfect
Image

We had a great day and I hated to see it end but all good things do come to an end. I did not see a dolphin, Chip did not see a starfish, J did not get to do too much snorkeling, but L did get to spend time at Seddy's, so the day was a success in my book!

We headed back to the house, cleaned up and hit the Banana deck for dinner and then went home and crashed.

PSA: I know that I have said it before and many people here agree, but for those that may be undecided. Book with Capt John!! He is just great. It was the highlight of our trip!

You didn't get starfish, snorkeling or dolphin but you do get a beauty queen, a puppy and a rainbow. :D

I love rainbows. And who cares if you didn't see everything you wanted to. It was a great day for all of you. The pageant queen is my mom by the way...She's nuts. It anyone runs in to her on vacation, just humor her. We don't want her back in Pa.!

X, is that a hat or a visor? If that's a hat I need one!

Great reports. I love the rainbow shot. I have never done a charter boat to any other island, I would love to do that someday but, I find that there are so many beaches I want to see on St John, that I just can't bring myself to leave for the day.
