St. Thomas

We won’t be staying here long as this is a busy cruise ship port and we don’t like crowds but we are here to drop off Russell as he heads back to Colorado and we head towards the Spanish Virgin Islands.

As I said before, John and I went up the mountain via the gondola to Paradise Point.  The views are amazing from there.  We could almost see Puerto Rico.  Included in the $21 ticket price is a ride on the ferris wheel.  Yes, I hated EVERY moment of it (the acrophobia kicks in big time) but survived and even peeked through my closed eyelids at the magnificent view.

We walked through many “souvenir” shops but one stood out for us.  This one had many coins from sunken ships that the owner had found himself and told us lots about them.  Plus the front door was well guarded….arrrrr!
