Day 3-4 (St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands and Sea Day)

OUCH - Cable rips my shoulder |
The first stop on the cruise was to St. Thomas. We went to the zipline Tree Limin’ http://www.ziplinestthomas.com/ at
the top of a mountain that overlooked the bay.
The drive itself to the top of the mountain was an adventure in a bus
and safari vehicle/hummer that needed power to get up the 45 degree hills. After we suited up, we went with two guides
through six ziplines. This was the
safest zipline setup I had seen with three safety carabiners per person. One time I lept off the platform and burned
my shoulder on the cable – like a rope burn, but it went through my shirt and
now I have a scar. The last line was a 6
story drop. The views from the platforms
were amazing and I would recommend this excursion.

Brrr - Magic Ice ice bar in St.Thomas |
After ziplining, we went into town ($4 per person cab) and
visited Magic Ice http://www.magicice.vi/
– an Ice Bar – where everything inside is made of ice – it was about 8000
square feet and about twice the size of the ice bar in Vegas. We hung out for a little while, got lots of
pictures and then headed back to the ship.
On the ship we saw two different comedians and had a great
dinner.

Stupid shirts wives made us wear |
Day 4 was at sea – we played mini-golf, went to the shows
and casino, and I headed to bed early because I ate too much. When I got to the bed, I got a text from
Shellie that I had missed the casino drawing for $450 and my name had been
drawn, but I had to be present to win. I
was just there! I didn’t miss another
drawing, but never did win after that.
