June 15th - Another day at beautiful Salomon Beach. We walked from Caneel as before.








We saw "our" friendly triggerfish, again.









June 16th - We went back to Denis Bay. It looked wavy but we put on snorkel gear & went out. We got to the cay & I decided to go back (it was a little to rough for me) but Morgan stayed out for 2 hours. I sit on the beach & read which I like to do almost as much as snorkeling.


Trunk Bay from Denis



June 17th - We went back to Salt Pond where we ran into Capn Dan, Ruby, & a friend of theirs. We had a short visit with them & said that we would see them later that night at the BB for the Forum gathering. As it turned out, it was just the 4 of us from the Forum that night. We had a nice visit with Capn Dan & Ruby.














June 18th - This was our last beach day. Where does the time go? We went back to Maho & saw lots of turtles & sting rays, as we did on the previous days that we were there. It is always so hard to leave the beach on the last day but the time came to go, so we packed our snorkel gear & headed back to the cottage.











June 19th - We were up at 5:30 to have coffee & watch the birds one last time. It rained right before we left which was the only rain we had the whole trip. All too soon it was time to go. We took the 10:00 car ferry to STT. It always makes me sad when the ferry pulls away from STJ - time to start planning the next trip. Mr. Constantin, from Amalie Car Rental, met us at the airport, we thanked him & gave him the keys. We loved renting from Amalie! Our flights to Miami & DFW were uneventful which is always good. Now it was time for re-entry. We had a fabulous trip & as always have many wonderful memories of STJ!!





Good-bye to our favorite place in the sun.

Great reports! Thanks so much! I found that since we rent with Amalie and car ferry back to St. Thomas, we have some time to do stuff to look forward to on St. Thomas, so it's less sad leaving our beloved St. John. It feels more like we're GOING somewhere on the ferry back, than LEAVING somewhere.
It kinda gets me over that teary part...

Rhonda - thanks for your report, I thoroughly enjoyed reading and seeing your pictures. Loved the rainbow from your last day.

What a great trip! Thanks for sharing y'alls good times!
One day we may brave the STT car rental....we'll see! Most everyone who does it, loves and recommends it! Until then, we'll just rent on STJ...we're a little chicken and creatures of habit like that. ha!
Happy Wednesday!

AWWWWW! What a great 3 week trip! Thanks for taking us with you~~~~
I think you have almost convinced me to rent a car from Amalie in St. Thomas next time!
Your pictures are wonderful and hoping we can actually snorkel Denis and maybe see a little of what you saw! Glad you bumped into Capn Dan and Ruby ... forum friends rock!!
See you at the next DFW forum gathering!!
