"He who returns from a journey is not the same as he who left." ~ Chinese Proverb

"Not all those who wander are lost."

Wow the last month has flown by!!! I'll start about my parents trip down to visit us at the end of February - Lots of fun and adventure that week!!!

The first day, they arrived right about when I was getting off work. We made it to Secret Harbour to catch happy hour and the sunset! Then headed over to Danny and my favorite local bar on-island, MooMoos! The owner makes one entree a night and it is always delicious. That day, he had caught wahoo, mahi and lobster. So, he made us a soup out of it and it is probably one of the best things I've had here!

On Friday, I took the day off and we went to Love City (St. John)!

I swear we saw almost the whole island. Started off touring the beaches...

We then went by an agricultural heritage festival at the Annaberg Sugar Mill Plantation Ruins...

Then we stumbled upon a beach to snorkel, a salt pond and Drunk Bay where people have created hundreds of objects out of coral on the beach!
