Day 7 - St. Thomas

Our last day.

Hoosband and I had been to St. Thomas before. We had done an island tour. We decided this time we would just go and veg with Connecticut Ken and Barbie on Megans Bay Beach. We stayed there for a few hours and just took in the rays. It was a nice beach but certainly not one of "the most gorgeous places on earth". It was $8 to get to the beach $3 to get ON the beach and $16 to rent chairs. A little overpriced if you ask me. Those prices are PER PERSON.

The rest of the crew met us at the beach after parasailing and shopping.

We decided to go shopping ourselves so we headed back to the ship for lunch. We went to the on board Johnny Rockets. The best part was the view. We were overlooking the port in St. Thomas with all of the sailboats and other yachts. Lovely!

We headed to the port shops and just looked around. Its official. There are a lot of jewelry stores in St. Thomas. I will not bring up the Tiffany and Co Atlas Rope necklace.

After boarding the ship, we split up. Some went to the helicopter pad to watch us sail away and then down to the hot tub. Others went to pack. It is afterall, time to go home. :(

Dinner was bittersweet.

We had such a great week....I can't believe it was time to go home.
