Evan taking care of the business...
Frying up some onions for our Filet Mignon Steaks... yeah right, we mix that stuff with corned beef and chuck them into tacos. THE GOOD: Meet our new friends! Mike, Mike, Mike, Maxi and John. These guys are true legends. Not only were they great company but they took us on cruises around the harbour on their 62 foot Catamaran. They fed us, drank with us and gave us missions to keep ourselves busy. Mike who owns Tiger Lady ( The Catamaran ) was looking to dig up some old moorings. We strapped on the snorkel gear and dove right in. After spending at least 2 hours in the water we decided that the gear on the bottom wasn't worth it and abandoned the mission. Mike provided the beer and took us on a tour around Charlotte Amelie Harbour. We pulled up beside giant cruise ships, had float planes land directly behind us and learned all about Blackbeard's Castle ( for real! ). Thank you to our friends at the Beachcomber Resort and Bar, it was a pleasure to meet you and we will be back to share your company once again.
Absolutely a beautiful boat built by Mike's Dad originally.
Mike also let us use his Zodiac to bomb back and forth between Lizzy Belle and the beach. What a guy!
Last nights sunset at Christmas Cove... We snorkelled for days here. The tropical fish danced around us as we explored coral reefs, swam with giant sting rays and spotted our first set of sea turtles. Spending time in the water seems to be as adventurous as each day's sail. We pulled into Cruz Bay today to shower, do laundry and clear out of customs tomorrow. Before we entered the harbour we were greeted by two Dolphins who hung out with Lizzy Belle for 10 minutes or so bouncing around her bow and occasionally showing us their bellies. One turned on it's side and looked directly up at us of LB's starboard side, we couldn't do anything but smile and gently say, "hello".
Keep in the loop my friends...
