Better Late Then Never...

As many people reading these entries already know, in May my sister Denise got married to her boyfriend Andrew on the island of St John in the Virgin Islands.  Of course, I'm just getting around to submitting an entry about it now.   Everything was perfect and it was a small affair with just immediate family.  Here is a picture of our group on the wedding day:


Here are Denise & Andrew as they are exchanging their vows

After a few days with the family on St John; Brie, Griffin, Matilda and I finished the week on St Thomas, the bigger and more touristy island.  They have this cool place called Coral World where we spent an afternoon.  Lots of underwater viewing of tropical fish and shark feeding and stingray touching and whatnot.  Griffin liked feeding these tropical birds best,which oddly enough aren't even native to the Carribbean, they come from Australia


Our hotel on St Thomas was up the hill from the downtown shopping and dining district.  They have the famous "99 Steps" that make coming and going easier.  Actually there are two big flights of steps and all together it's more like 150 steps.





It was a great trip and we thank Denise and Andrew for picking such a lovely spot to have their wedding, which also turned into a short family vacation.  I have tons more pictures, I may do more entries in the future.
