Woke up early! Wanted to make the most out of the day in St. Thomas – beautiful island. Had a good breakfast, well half a good breakfast … a special announcement was made, “Mohammad al Ansari has been chosen for random inspection” – Please proceed to Deck 13. That’s exactly what I did, as soon as I entered the lounge I was escorted to an office closeby with the US Customs, recognized them from the uniform at the airport. They asked me a couple questions and I had to wait for an hour till I was allowed on US soil.
If ever you have watched ’50 First Dates’, then this place reminded me exactly of it. As soon as we docked it started raining, very light cool rain, it made it humid but I liked it. A bunch of jewelery and watch shops everywhere. We took an open cab to Magens Bay, according to National Geographic, the 2nd most beautiful beach in the world. I had to agree about it being beautiful and clean – the sand was really soft, the water crystal clear and to our luck the sun came back and the beach was getting a lot of people
After swimming, play football on the beach we headed to downtown Charlotte, it had a historic French atmosphere, I guess it was colonized by the French before. It turned US eventually cause I saw a footlocker and 2 Hooters restaurant haha
After having some Belgian chocolate from a local store we took a Sky Ride to Paradise Point, the best view of the island and its surroundings, there were a couple of parrots too
