St. John, May 1, 2010

After an effortless trip down, we embarked on a new adventure-- renting cars on St. Thomas at the airport, driving out to the end of the island, and taking the car ferry. Despite the crush of cars near a big carnival, we navigated our way across the island without accident or incident! The car ferry is a far cry from the Westin ferry, but the convenience of having a vehicle and your luggage immediately upon arriving far outweighed the "luxury" of the Westin experience. Once we were "home," we began the unpacking. The food we brought plus the food we had here in storage is enough for two weeks of meals. All the meats stayed frozen and none of the produce was pureed as sometimes happens. Our first dinner was chicken on the barbie with mashed potatoes, peas, cranberry sauce, and salad. As David is fond of saying at each meal: "It all came out of a suitcase."
I haven't figured out this picture upload yet....

  1. Yay! Thanks for the update!! The picture is great (except for the sideways thing), it's great to "see" you all!

    As for the picture upload... I have to edit the pic before uploading it to blogger. If it is sideways or needs cropping I rotate it or whatever first. Hope that helps!
