Hanging out with Ross and Diana

Since Jan and Glenn left, we have been doing boat chores like changing the oil in the engines and the gen set, oh my that is some black messy stuff, sewing on hatch covers, and hanging out with Ross and Diana. We met them last year in the Bahamas and have traveled with them whenever possible.  We have had fun with them.  We both have guests coming for Christmas.  So excited!!!!

Early morning showers made a rainbow over Charlotte Amalie in St Thomas 

Our boats Christmas lights.  HO HO HO

Boat parade

Pirate Ships

Which one do you think won?

99 steps in Charlotte Amalie.  We went in early one morning when there were no cruise ships thinking we would miss the crowds.  OOPPSS   trouble is they are not open when the cruise ships are not in town.  This leads the way to Blackbeards castle and other tourist attractions.

Long way down, even longer or so it seemed going up!  The steps were made from a danish ship's ballast back in the 1700's

View half way up looking out on Charlotte Amalie harbor.  Check out the foundation ruins below us.  It looked like they were going to build on them.

Our boat on the bottom right, One White Tree (Ross and Diana) on the left. If you look real closely you can see the big Canadian flag on their back stay. (it is the little red dot).  You can kinda see the swells out past the island.

Cool sculpture of three women.  Each one had a light of some sort (torch, lantern) in one hand  and a weapon in the other.  Maybe was to fight off the pirates.  All have a determined look on their face.

Ahhh.... back at Christmas Cove at Great St James Island.  Sunset with a squall.
