Thanksgiving

Spent holiday on St. John. Breakfast was a phenomenal Strawberry Banana Smoothie $12 made with Soy Milk at Caneel Bay. So nice they use biodegradable containers...
their grounds are immaculate with lots of interesting flora. I appreciated that they labeled some mysterious plants species like this Fishtail Palm Tree...
an unlabeled Berry Bush with gorgeous blossoms...
that turn into these Berries. Gotta find out what this is...
next was Trunk Bay for swimming and use of showers (Caneel doesnt have showers for guests). Drove down to Coral Bay and enjoyed the herds of Goats wandering freely. This group had an Egret that was following them everywhere...
more mystery flowers...
these yellow blossoms are probably the most beautiful I have ever seen...
returned to Caneel Bay for lunch. The Hummus with Grilled Pineapple $14 to start...
My Jerk Tofu Sandwich $16. The Hummus was good, but the Jerk Tofu and Fries were just so-so. The Mr said his Grilled Vegetable Sandwich was also disappointing. Surprising for such an upscale resort to have such mediocre food. Buns were taken for the Chickens...
saw a rainbow on the ferry ride home...
Dinner was some super delicious Pepper Steak and Bowties from Natural Livity. Now they know how to cook up some great grub...
watched 'The Wedding Ringer' with Kevin Hart. Best Thanksgiving I ever had. Looking forward to reading about everyone else's. Bye for now.
