Today was a “No Beach” day.
We’re all quite sunburned so since we’re sailing tomorrow, we opted for
no beach today. Instead, we hung out at
the house (I made up a sort of exercise routine) then we drove to Cruz Bay and
drove around everywhere just trying to find a place to park. We found a tiny parking lot near the
passenger ferry and at a delicious lunch at High Tide, right on the beach. Here’s the view from our table:
The lunch was great a relaxing. We endured a short power outage but it didn’t impact lunch at all. After lunch we walked around a did some souvenir shopping. Ryan bought a beautiful sterling silver ring and Nick bought a hat and shirt.
Grant grabbed an ice cream cone then we headed back to the car and took the road through the national park (the north shore road). At the fork in the road past Maho Bay, where we normally turn right to get to our house, we turned left and drove to Francis Bay and to the Annaburg Ruins. We parked in front of a sign and took a short, amazing trail (Leinster Bay Trail) to Watermelon Bay. It looks like no roads will get you there and the boats moored in the bay were beautiful.
From there it was back to the house for some downtime then a quick trip to the mini mart for more junk food (in the middle of a rainstorm), then back to the house for bean and cheese “tostadas” – taco shells broken in half – and a strange tasting avocado. Then binging Stranger Things (finished season 2) then to bed.
