Another Beach Thursday!

On our recent cruise to the Eastern Caribbean, we had a port stop in St Thomas, USVI.  Wow, St Thomas is so beautiful!  We were lucky that we missed the tropical storm that had come just days before, so the weather we had was absolutely beautiful - sunny and hot just like I like it!  We did a tour around the island and stopped at beautiful Coki Beach, voted one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.  And we were not disappointed!  (Well, until it was time to leave!)  The water was crystal clear, the sand in the water was so soft your toes just squished right in, and the water so warm.  Even though there were a few other tour vehicles there, it didn't feel overcrowded or too commercial.  There was a small snack shop for some light refreshments or a cold drink (We had a Carib beer!), rentals for beach chairs and snorkeling equipment, and a couple small souvenir stands.  There is also a very large community of iguanas that were literally everywhere!  I have never such big lizards up so close, just right out in the trees or walking on the road!  And they can move pretty quick too!  We really loved Coki Beach... I wish we could have stayed longer, both at the beach as well as in St Thomas, but hopefully someday we will be back!
