As beautiful as St. Thomas was, the Queen knew from experience that St. John's was even more lovely, and a must-see for those in the family who hadn't yet been there. So after breakfast, they all hopped on a open surrey-style taxi to Red Hook, to catch the ferry over to St. John's. Their destination - the incredibly beautiful Trunk Bay.
Although they enjoyed a white-knuckled ride to the ferry - over roads that were extremely narrow and hilly, and had more than a few hair-pin turns
along the way - alas, not a picture was taken, for they all feared for their lives.
For it seemed that their hired driver was a bit short of patience that morning, and tailgated and blew his horn almost continuously the whole way... but - he did manage to get them there in time for the 10am ferry...
No sooner had they stopped, that the same taxi-man then turned his attentions toward Brian, and with his hand held out - hath said - "That'll be 80 dollas mon, please."
