St. Croix: Part One

 

It was raining buckets at times, but there were still many amazing sights to take in. And rums to try.  After leaving Carambola, it was off to Sandy Point, only open on weekends. It was a US National Park and was a true wilderness beach. Frederiksted was also an interesting little town since a cruise ship was in, including the rundown historic fort, but I can see how it might be dead if no ships were coming in. Pier 69 had some breathtaking Fish Tacos with poblano sauce. Also fun? Watching NFL teams play in the snow on TV. Puts the whole rainy morning thing in perspective. Even more fun? CHICKENS! LOTS OF CHICKENS. CHICKENS AND PIGEONS LIVING TOGETHER! I also highly recommend getting your hands on some Cruzan Black Strap Rum if you find it. It reminds me of THE KRAKEN but smoother.
