The IndiansAt the crack of dawn we are ready to pack. Luggage must be out of the cabin by 7:30am. We sail to Cruz Bay, St John for a simple customs check and continue to Red Hook, St. Thomas. The crew and passengers gather for a last minute photo. Taxi’s are waiting at the dock. We wave goodbye to each dingy of departing passengers. For $30 the taxi drives us to the airport. We retrieve our carry-ons, stand in line for boarding passes for tomorrow and walk to the Island Beachcomber Hotel . Our room isn’t ready so we relax on the sandy beach. Vic goes in for a swim. The weather changes to rainy showers. Lunch at the bar/restaurant on the beach is a shared fish and chips dish with pina colada smoothies for drinks. Cold breezes change the air temperature. We retreat to our room for a nap and don’t wake up til 8:30 pm. The moon is out and the rains are gone. A perfect night to stroll the beach. We repack for our flight home. The rafts are left in the closet.
We received an immediate response from Kassandra who reserved our cruise as soon as she got a confirmation from us. Maria and Jess also were in touch right away.

Mary was super helpful and patient. Answered every question and with candor (answers of “Everything’s equally great” aren’t helpful! 😎).

The trip planner I worked with, Jane, was excellent. She had travelled to Antarctica twice and was the voice of experience as she explained travel options to me. I've travelled internationally for many years for many years for business and pleasure including a number of adventure trips. It is a delight to work with such an experienced planner. I've used Adventure Life for three trips, Costa Rica, Galapagos and upcoming, Antarctica. I highly recommend them.

Clara was great to work with. She presented lots of options and always responded promptly. And she found excellent options within our price range.
