Marie's St. John Vacation
Early Morning on Gibney BeachThis was taken from the beach right outside the cottage where I stayed. This was my proof that the water really IS as blue and clear as they say it is. |
Fred, my Cottage-mateThis guy showed up within minutes of getting to the cottage. I thought he looked like a Fred, so his name stuck. He was with me the whole time. He got some necessary vet care and some good food. I got a promise from the folks who own the place that they'll take care of him; I'm hoping for the best. |
Gibney Beach CottageThe cottage on the beach. Small and very charming. |
Cottage GuardFred keeping guard...of course. |
Trunk Bay BeachOne of the most popular and beautiful beaches on St. John. They have an underwater snorkel trail, where I went snorkeling for the first time. St. Thomas is in the background. |

Island DonkeysLots of donkeys on St. John. I was lucky enough to catch a mother and child wandering around together one afternoon. |
Sunset Over Gibney BeachThe first storm while I was there... |
Inside the CottageAside from a small bathroom and kitchen, this is about all there was to the cottage. |
From Bordeaux MountainThe highest point on St. John. |
Red LeavesI have no idea what kind of tree this is, but the leaves are gorgeous. |
Green LeavesLike the red leaves, I don't know what these are, but the color was eye catching... |
