We Made It!

Update:   yeah pics are here!
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Everything went like clock work this morning. Up at 4 and out the door at 4:45! We were checked in at DCA by 6 and that was So Sweet. Our flights were on time and in fact wev arrived St Thomas early. We sat in row 6 of a 757-200 so the exit door was right by our seat. The door opened we were the first off and with just carry-ons we were in the cab and across the island in time to catch the 4 PM ferry. 1 hour ahead of schedule. It was definitely an Amazing Race power move. Oh yeah I forgot that the Virgin Islands do not use daylight savings time so we are at the same time as the East Coast.

James, the owner of our cottage, picked us up at the ferry and gave us the once around our place for the week. It is like living in a big screen porch. Cozy, but just perfect for our stay. Great views and the tree frogs are singing up a storm

After dropping our bags we headed back to Cruz Bay in time for Woody's Happy Hour as planned! Chad greeted us and we melted back into the STJ frame of mind.



After chillin' we slipped over to the Beach Bar for Janet to get a Bushwhacker and dinner



We enjoyed a fresh Mahi sandwich as the sun called it a day... and so did we. Back to the cottage with a stop at the market to load up on supplies. Tomorrow starts the official training schedule and a good night's rest is in order.
