We stayed in St. Thomas Bay near Spanish Town, Virgin Gorda last night. We had a beautiful sunset but it proved to be a very uncomfortable anchorage with lots of rolling waves and high winds pushing us around quite a bit. We thought that we were going to bump into a 65' Catamaran beside us at 1:30am, but all ended up well. That's the extent of our worries - bumping into a million dollar yacht anchored beside us!
We rose at first sunlight and made our way South to The Baths - the famous granite rock formations formed from Volcanic lava millions of years ago. The adventurous trek through the tight crevices and shallow pools of water kept us busy for several hours and the kids loved it!

I'll take more time and upload some other photos later as the internet is slow here.
We are now in Leverick Bay, Virgin Sound (North end of Virgin Gorda). We just had dinner at the Marina restaurant, did a little provisioning and will be heading back to the boat shortly, which is anchored in the protected bay.
We'll be back within Wifi range tomorrow as we'll come back in to check out the shops, do some snorkeling at nearby reefs and maybe I'll fit a dive in as well.

Bear Quote of the day:
While watching the U2 Concert on the laptop last night Capt. said, "there'd be nothing better than being a rockstar like JT or Bono". Claire then piped in and said, "Except for a zookeeper!".
