I forgot to mention that yesterday was our 500th day on a cruise ship!!! It seems like just yesterday we were recognizing our 365th day on cruises- and it really wasn't very long ago. We are cruise addicts!
This morning was very overcast, so there wasn't a true sunrise. Still, the clouds were interesting. It was funny to immediately notice, when I went up to Deck 19 to walk, that we were approaching St. Thomas from a different direction. It makes sense; we're doing this itinerary in reverse order, but it's amusing to think that I've been to St. Thomas so many times that I can tell the approach is different.
You can see the big, sweeping turn we made to pass between Water Island and St. Thomas.
