A Few Pix of the Virgins (Not us - the Islands)

We spent a week cruising along with our new friends Jill and Dick. They are from North Carolina, and sail their 48' Island Packet, "Changin' Tags". They had two couples as guests aboard their boat, and we took turns hosting cocktails and/or dinner at the various anchorages that week. It was a bit confusing, since both their male guests were named "Jim".

Susan, Jim 1, and Jill (who appears to be in the witness protection program...)


















Jim 2 and Dick (evening cocktails at Cooper Island)


















Jill and Diane (Cooper Island)

Looking West from Cooper Island - View is of Sir Francis Drake Channel

The ceiling of Sidney's Peace and Love restaurant on Jost Van Dyke is hung with hundreds of T-Shirts donated by visiting sailors over the years.




















Sidney's restaurant has a unique self-service bar. It is stocked with everything, including mixers, ice, booze, beer, and wine. Customers keep track of their drinks in a notebook, then pay the cashier when they're done.
