What I Did On My Summer Vacation: The Big British V

*sigh*

anyone else not feel like blogging?  because i certainly don't. 

but i don't feel like doing work even less. 

*sigh*

so here we go....

next stop on our cruise after a day at sea was Tortola, one of the islands of the British Virgin Islands.  It was my first time in Tortola and after docking, my MIL and I decided to do a little exploring.  Since it was 300 degrees, that got old fast.  (I would just like to point out that my skin is the color of paste.  I am not evolutionarily suited for the environmental or climatic conditions in this this part of the world.  AND YES EVOLUTION IS PRETTY MUCH SCIENTIFIC FACT!!!)

so we quickly hopped on Captain Friendly's taxi/bus/pick-up truck with seats, for a 3 hour tour.

for $15 we got a little history (there were a lot of pirate stories .... arrrgggghhh) and current events (apparently  the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies were filmed here) and we got to do a little shopping and a little relaxing and we got to see a lot of beautiful scenery.
