(Did I mention that I destroyed our camera the day before the trip? All the pics are courtesy of Joy/Bob & Babçia/Grandpa.) All I had to do was whittle 800+ images down to 45 and then combine them to 9 collages. (oops, I included one twice). You can get a closer look by clicking on any pic to pop out a bigger view.

| Once again, we are grateful for the hospitality aboard Exit Strategy. |

| All the cousins played with each other so nicely. |

| Genna was a handful, or a ham, most of the time. |
 |
| So glad we disregarded slightly dicey conditions to visit this tide pool. Love to explore this area more next time... in calmer seas. |

| Maya finally realized her ambition of snorkeling. Albeit, sans snorkel. She preferred the familiarity of goggles and only let me make her wear flippers once. Unexpectedly, the Cruise Ship pier was the best snorkeling we saw on the island. (Corals at other locations: Green Cay & Buck Island were sub par). Plus, Frederiksted's western location shielded it from the open Atlantic and was the best, calm beach for playing around. Bob spotted the turtle (top), Jeff noticed the camouflaged flounder (bottom) and the giant spotted ray (middle) was apparently after me. Maya is also very proud to announce that she spotted her own flounder and got to swim though a school of a million little fish. |
