Honeymoon - Day Five
Date: January 15, 2002 Place: Cruise Ship -> St. Thomas
We woke early to make our tour time and go through immigration. We got up, dressed, and had breakfast. Today, the early bird breakfast was really busy - much more than usual... everyone was ready to hit the port!
We then got on line and went through the process for immigration. Then, we met with our tour group and started our St. Thomas sightseeing tour. emily was quite happy to see that the vans were air conditioned because that sun was hot and the air was 87°!! Luckily the shade and breeze made it okay.
First, we drove up the hillside to a side of the road look-out point. We stopped for about 5-10 minutes to take some photos of the ocean view.

Then we headed off to St. Peter's Great House. The house was on a cliffside with beautiful views and lush plantings. We were there for about a half hour till we drove on to Mountain Top, another touristy stop with shops and a view. During that half hour, we sat and enoyed the view and then decided to check out the shops. Both emily and I found great hats.

After that, we took the tour van back into town where we immediately found a place for lunch. After eating, we wandered around to find emily a snowglobe and a t-shirt. Then we caught a taxi back to the ship.
We were happy to be back since it was so hot and sticky. In fact, we ended up laying down to cool off and fell asleep!
So after our nap, we got a snack and hit the mini-golf course. We played putt-putt which was a lot of fun. Then, we wandered and sat awhile on the deck. Then went down to dress for dinner.
 Putt-Putt time!
After dinner, we came back to the room and emily proceded to fall asleep!! She was out cold so I decided to go wander the ship and play some videogames. Then I came back and went to bed too.
