Guest Blogger Linda's Week in Review

I learned a lot durng my week at sea - and now I will share my insights with you!



  • Pain killers come in a plastic cup, not a pill bottle

  • Two showers a week are more than enough

  • Underwear is optional

  • If you have a fear of heights, dont take a taxi on Virgin Gorda

  • The first letter of the pirate alphabet is arrrrr.....the last letter of the pirate alphabet is arrrrr.

  • Pain killers are my new favorite drink

  • Joe really enjoys his morning swims....so do the neighbors

  • Never say never....remember Willie T's!

  • Kenny Chesney likes to hang with his friends Ivan and Foxy on Jost Van Dyke

  • Did i mention pain killers are my new favorite drink????
  • You can spend a week in close quarters with good friends....and still be friends. What a great week. Thanks Mike and Roberta

Schnuckelputz




Here is the Soggy Dollar Bar on Jost Van Dyke Island, our first stop since sailing. This is where the Painkiller (my new favorite drink) was originated. A nice Austrian man nicknamed me Schnuckelputz (which is a term of endearment according to his wife).






Day 1

This is the view from our balcony at the hotel on St Thomas where we stayed the night before boarding.

Everyone is worried about something

  • Marcia is afraid we will be attacked by pirates next week.
  • Dorothy is worried that we will forget to put the ladder down before diving into the ocean and not be able to get back into the boat.
  • Maddie is afraid to stay at the Bed & Biscuit (well.....afraid to be away from me)
  • Linda is worried that we will be robbed (not sure if she is worried about pirates or someone on land) so we are leaving all our jewelry at home.
  • Peter is afraid the pirates will be gay.
  • Susan is afraid that we won't come back.
  • I am worried that I've forgotten to pack something.
  • I'm afraid to publicize what Joe is worried about!
