It was a very hectic time and I got a voicemail from Mary Beth on a Sunday afternoon. I took the message to Lynn and said “I don’t want to stress you out more but Mary just invited us to a cruise in the Caribbean; 10 days from now.” It was a bucket list kind of trip. After a short discussion (like 15 seconds), we definitely wanted to join them.
We flew into St. Thomas for a four day cruise on a 100 foot yacht. For eight people, there was a four of crew. The Captain (Ryan), Cook (Ariel), Tender Pilot (Maggie) and Staff (Carmen).
- The meals were all cooked in the galley.
- We spent most of the time playing in the water.
- Plenty of drinks.
- Lots of great conversation
We didn’t get to move around as much as we hoped due to an electrical problem with the motors. We did get the British Virgin Islands and Peter Island. But, we moored in Trunks Bay, St. John’s and stayed there most of the time.
I’ll never forget that trip and can’t thank Mary and Paul enough for inviting us.
