Next day we decide to take a visit to Cinnamon Bay, unfortunately I forgot the camera :(

Day after, took the mile long hike to Waterlemon Cay for some awesome snorkeling! It was definitely worth the walk!

Great pictures. I guess the next questions is "When are you going back?" Keep posting!

Great pictures! Now you get it! We are going on our 4th trip and still feel like newbies. Keep the report and the pictures coming. We are living vicariously!

Well, it's Saturday. Time to get up and catch the ferry to St Thomas. Decided to get up early to see if we could catch a fabulous sunrise to take home with us. And as with everything on this trip, we got more than we ever expected!
