Sailing the British Virgin Islands

In April Kevin and I joined six of our very good friends on a trip sailing the British Virgin Islands. To say it was amazing would be an understatement. Although it was SO hard to leave the babies for that long we managed to relax and enjoy a once in a lifetime vacation. From what I gathered the babies could have cared less that we were gone. They enjoyed being with their grandparents. We spent 7 nights on our friends the Clickners’ catamaran.  We flew into St Thomas and took an eventful ferry over to Tortola where we jumped on board our beautiful home for the week. We spent every day sailing and visiting numerous islands.  We spent time on Tortola, Norman Island, Salt Island, The Dogs, The Indians, Beef Island, Jost Van Dyke, Anegada, Marina Cay Island, Monkey Point, Cane Garden Bay, Trellis Bay, St Thomas, and Guana Island. We rode ATVs all around Jost Van Dyke, We snorkeled in every cove we could, we jumped cliffs where they seemed safe, we paddle boarded, we rode scooters around the entire island of Anegada, we ate amazing meals and most of all we all got to relax. I had the best time with Celeste, David, Chase, Melissa, Jess and Chris. We cannot thank Jess and Chris enough for providing us the opportunity to take such an amazing trip. I sure hope I get the chance to do this again in my lifetime because it was one for the books!
When it was time to say good bye to the islands I could not get home fast enough to squeeze my little munckins!!!
Enjoy a few of the gazillion pictures we took!
