We didn’t sign up for an excursion in St Thomas so it was a leisurely morning of taking our time getting around. We got off the ship late in the morning and walked around the picturesque harbor.

and then crossed back a couple of blocks and walked back. It was interesting to be in a place that so closely resembled the states and felt very safe to walk around.

I really need to read up on US Territories and what exactly that relationship means as I was surprised to see so many familiar political signs. After walking about seven miles, we stopped at Kmart for some much needed water before returning to the ship.

The afternoon was much of the same routine – buffet, nap, and watch movies. The show tonight was a comedy troupe by the name of The Second City, which is where a lot of the SNL stars like John Belushi and Bill Murray got their start. They did some rehearsed sketches and then they did some improv games. It was a really fun show.  After that, we hit the outside buffet with S&W for some ice cream
