| St. Thomas as we docked |
Today we were docked in St. Thomas when we woke up. Our cabin was on the bay side so we saw all the sailboats and yachts that were docked in the harbor. There was only one other big ship docked with us so we knew that the streets of St. Thomas would not be crowed.

Barb's new ring
|
St. Thomas is the shopping paradise of the Caribbean and on Barb’s birthday she made out just fine. The first thing that we purchased was a bottle of Kahlua that we had never seen. Instead of the regular 20% alcohol by volume, this bottle was 35% making it 70 proof and was it every good!!!
Anyway, after spending a couple of hours going to most of the stores, we then went to our favorite store in St. Thomas and Barb bought a beautiful ring. The center stone is Blue Topaz, surrounded by diamonds and black opals – it is really pretty. We also bought her a couple of bangles for her wrist – she needed them.
We were back on ship at 3:30 for a 5:00 departure and on our way to Dominica.
At dinner we were the only ones at our table – the other people must have been eating elsewhere.

Ed with his winning trophy and other goodies in the bag
|
After the show, Barb played slots and won $330 and Ed won the blackjack tournament and won another “ship on a stick” trophy and $500!!! That puts us up for the trip so far – wish us luck.
It is now tomorrow so we better get to bed.
