We woke up a little earlier today since we were going out on the Scubadu. It was another beautiful morning and I joked to my husband that it is starting to get a little boring with the weather, being nice everyday! Obviously I was kidding, but it was so nice to continue to have such nice weather.
The time we had to meet Captain Joe was 9:30am so we drove into town to grab some breakfast. We headed to the paid parking lot once again to park our jeep since there wasn’t any other parking spaces available. Our friends hadn’t eaten breakfast out yet and they wanted to go to JJ’s. Well we got there around 8:30 and thought an hour would be plenty of time to eat. We all ordered our food and got our coffee and juice in a sufficient amount of time. Then over a half hour passed and it was getting closer to 9:30. I was getting a bit concerned to so I called CJ and let him know we may be running a few minutes late. I’m glad I did because we didn’t get our breakfast until 9:25! The food is good, but the service has definitely declined IMO.
Cruz Bay:
When we were done with breakfast we walked over to the National Park Ferry to meet up with CJ. We have been sailing with CJ since ‘04 and always make sure we sail with him every year. It is always good to see him with that smile! We said our hellos and were on our way to a great day of sailing.
My husband helping out:
As we sailed, we did hit a few on and off showers, but generally the weather was perfect. We made a few stops around St. John. I don’t know what it is, but the views you get on the water of the surrounding islands never gets old.
Before we knew we were headed back to the dock. It was another great sail with Captain Joe. We said our goodbyes and told him we would be back next year (fingers crossed) and would be in touch.
Thanks Joe!
After a full day out on the catamaran we were pretty hungry and thirsty. We walked over to the High Tide for a few rum punches and painkillers. Our friends wanted to grab food to cook back up at the villa, but I wanted to eat out. So we compromised and ordered a to-go order from High Tide. My husband and our friend AJ burgers, our friend Lori had the shrimp kabobs and I had the lobster tail. We headed back to our villa with our food in tow.
One of the regulars at High Tide:
We sat at the outside bar and enjoyed our food. This was my 2nd time having the lobster tail at High Tide, and it is always very good and great value for the amount of food you get. Everyone else enjoyed their meal. It was a long day and the girls went to bed early while the boys stayed up and played - LOL.
