Our first port of call on our 2022 Caribbean Cruise was Charlotte Amalia, St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. We took a converted pickup/mini-bus for a quick drive up steep, curving roads to Drakeโs Seat โ an overlook to Magenโs Bay, then down to Magenโs Bay Beach for a few hours in the sun. A walk into town and back rounded off the day.
2022 Caribbean Cruise
We originally booked our cruise for the end of September, but it was canceled due to Hurricane Ian. We were able to rebook a similar cruise for November.
Halloween 2022
We were a more family-friendly version of Cards Against Humanity this year!
I think people were eager to get life back to normal by now and we had a much better turn out this year.
