WOW –
There were so many wow's on this trip and it all began with the
fun-loving group of
women that went on this trip. As I overheard many times,
the group seemed to “click” from the first evening in St.
Thomas. We enjoyed an evening social and had time to talk
and get acquainted before we boarded the ship. We quickly
discovered that everyone was excited to have the opportunity to
go sailing but leave the work to someone else!
Getting
settled into our cabins we unpacked and stowed our luggage and
then we all met up on deck where we spent almost all of our
time. Since the ship only sails during the day, sleeping
in the cabins is no different than in a hotel room. We all
watched as the sails were raised for the first time and we got
under way. It was such a memorable sight and it set the stage for the
coming week.
The beauty of each island was unique. There is natural
beauty everywhere while shopping and restaurants can be found on
the larger islands. It was great to get off the ship each
evening and go into town for dinner. It really added to the
island experience and we had wonderful dinners.
The group took advantage of
this variety to do snorkeling, hiking, sun-bathing, kayaking, swimming and
shopping. What a pleasure to wake up daily and choose to be
active or do absolutely nothing!
The trip offered true relaxation in a lovely, small group atmosphere. And,
it was such a wonderful getaway from the cold winter weather at
home.
