water

Any trip to our home, The United States Virgin Islands, must, Must, MUST include lots and lots of time in, on, and under the water. Our latest trip back to St. John yesterday was certainly no exception.

A good 360 islands, islets, cays, and rocks lay scattered about this extraordinary corner of The Bahamas that is the Exumas, all of them sporting the same crystalline seas.

The four-legged friends that draw most people to Staniel Cay are pink and porky. Fervent dog-lover that I am, though, I'm more interested in this furry girl.

The boat ride from Provo to North Caicos delivered amazing seascapes, of course. Surprisingly to me, so did our drive to Middle Caicos.

The warm, clear, and sinfully cerulean seas that encircle the 365 islands in the Exumas...

It's hard to describe how beautiful it is...

A comfy chaise lounge on a warm day at the beach with great company is always nice, but for those times when you'd rather be alone, this is ideal...

The bathtub in your villa or hotel room in Martinique may be super fancy, but it won't compare to Josephine's...
