St. Croix, U.S.V.I
After 5 days we boarded a tiny Cessna with 3 others and 2 crazy fun pilots
and flew to St Croix where we picked up a hire car to explore the island.
Our AirB&B was up a hill overlooking Christiansted in a very nice efficiency
apartment owned by a delightful and helpful host, Dwayne.
Lazy days of wandering around the island, eating at quiet spots, wandering
empty beaches and doing rum tours followed!
We both loved the less touristy aspect of St. Croix. Only about one cruise
ship comes in every month and it’s a laid back fun place. Although we were
aware the lack of the hordes of tourism does impact the local economy and
many there are struggling. That said the people were unfailingly friendly and
cheerful.
