Westin St John USVI - Trip Report (Day 4) April 29th 2012

Today we head home which means a whole day of traveling.  We slept in a little and headed to breakfast after packing up our things.  Our water taxis picked us up at 11:30am for St Thomas.

 This ride was a lot smoother then the ride to the St John.  By the time we cleared customs and security we did not have much time to wait at all.  Off to Philadelphia we went and then on to Toronto.  We arrived home in London around 1am.

Today was the last full day on the island.  It is also Steven's birthday!  We started the day with breakfast and then we headed into town, Cruz Bay, to do some shopping.  While we were there we found a hiking trail which took us to a nice look out over Cruz Bay.

We checked out the shops at Mongoose Junction and then headed back to the resort.

We then hit up the beach and I went for another float in the ocean while Steven read.  We had lunch and again jumped in the pool.

We relaxed in out room for a bit before we got ready for the Gala dinner that was planned for the evening.

Today we started off with breakfast with the group as well as a short meeting.  Then the rest of the day was to ourselves.  We started the day at the beach where I signed out a floated and floated on the waves while Steven read on the beach.

We then had a bite to eat and headed to the pool.  Yes we jumped in the pool right after eating.  In the afternoon we had a scheduled poolside massage and then headed back to the room to get ready for our group dinner. 

We went to Asolare on the island which was very nice.  We finished dinner pretty late and was ready for bed when we returned to the resort.

 From St Thomas we took a water taxis over to St John.  It was a pretty fast and bumpy ride going over.  Some of our group got quite wet on the ride.
