I arrived in St. Croix on June 11th. The Jansen’s picked me up at the airport and brought me back to the Adamo. We spent the afternoon collecting Coconuts and Mango’s.
In the morning we went out conching. Phil taught me how to clean conch and we had conch salad for breakfast. We spent the rest of the day fishing and played football in the evening. At the end of the day, I was tired!
The remainder of the week we fished, played football and went to town. Phil’s mom had to go back home. So we decided to sail to St. John for a few days. We left early in the morning. We thought it was going to be not as rough. But it was rough, very rough and windy and scary. I got sea sick. Fortunately, it was a short trip. We arrived in St. John at two in the afternoon.
I was happy to be out of the ocean. We have been snorkeling.
Phil’s dad caught a huge lobster. We ate it for lunch. We went camping on the beach.
It didn’t work out as planned. We had rat problems and Phil wanted his mama. So we ended up leaving.
The following day we went to Cruz Bay to see the town. We walked around looking at shops and boutiques. Then we sailed to New Found Bay and decided to go camping again. This time we made it through the night. We cooked eggs and fish on the camp fire.
Today I learned how to sail on the Bic (a small sailboat).

I sailed okay, but also flipped it.
So far this summer has been a blast!
