| Oz arrives at Water Island,Alan, Leslie, Jesma, and Roger |
Alan, my brother, flew to St Lucia to meet his neighbors from Australia
and they island hopped down to visit with us.
 |
| Roger and Jesma experience the beach movie |
They arrived on Monday which is
movie night at Water Island so we had to go see the movie James Brown on
the beach. The island’s idea of a drive-in theater only here it is chairs on
the beach and golf carts. The next day
we started a whirlwind tour of the Virgin Islands!

 |
| Callwood Distillery |
After a stop in Maho Bay, we headed to Sopers Hole to
check in and have lunch. Our tour included Cane Garden Bay, where we toured the
Callwood Distillery, and enjoyed the beach and bars.

We had to go to
Jost Van Dyke White Bay to visit Ivan’s, which was closed, and the Soggy
Dollar, the home of the Pain Killer. We were there with a lot of boats from
Puerto Rico as it was the day before their holiday Christmas in July. We also
enjoyed the best rum punch ever at Jewels on the beach.

Of course no visit to the BVI would be complete without a
visit to Normand Island. On the way we stopped at the Indians for a beautiful
snorkel.

 |
| The Jazz group at Fat Turtle |
On the way back we stopped at Cruz Bay and visited Woody’s,
Castaways, Mongoose Junction, and Driftwood Dave’s. The trip ended much too
quickly. Back at St. Thomas we walked
the jewelry district, listened to jazz and drank Sake Bombs. Then it was time
for goodbyes as Roger and Jesma left for New York on their way back to OZ.
