"No Bad Days. . . in the BVI!" The positive affirmations are so plentiful in the British Virgin Islands that you almost start to believe the "No Bad Days" rhetoric. T-shirts and souvenirs all endorse the hype.
We bought a bumper sticker from the Perfect Pineapple Inn that reads: "Positive Is How I Live." Since most bumper stickers with "positive" usually reference HIV Aids, it's nice to find the slogans in the West Indies are all upbeat!
Yesterday we explored the island of Virgin Gorda which was named by Christopher Columbus who thought the shape looked like a fat woman lying on her back. The highlight of Virgin Gorda was The Baths National Park. The Baths and Devil's Bay were super cool. And the trails between the two take you hiking through boulders and tight spaces and wading through water and crashing waves. It's quite a rush! Especially for people like me who get a little claustrophobic. But I came and I conquered....loved it actually!
It was no small effort to order "virgin" drinks in Virgin Gorda. The waitress acted like leaving the alcohol out was impossible. With all the young families we've seen we can't be the first tourists to make such requests!
So far, the only trip casualty is Paige's Nano that got wet and appears dead, but, all in all, it was another great day in the British Virgin Islands!
