#232...ooh, Trunk Bay...

"For the true beach lover, missing the great white sweep of Trunk Bay would be like touring Europe and skipping Paris."  The family, having read those words, had to agree..

Spencer 4 hire, stopped the surrey-taxi under a canopy of palm trees. The family piled out and set down upon the sandy trail that lead to perhaps one of the most glorious sights their eyes had ever imagined - Trunk Bay. 

A small sign was posted about the large surf conditions (an event that happens only once or twice a month) and because of this, they quickly found out that there would be no snorkeling that day.  Their disappointment was quickly erased once they set foot on the great span of soft white beach.  They stood there mesmerized by the colors and sounds of the waters and the beautiful tropical surroundings. 

The whole island smelled of sweet orchids in bloom...

Holy fricking schat! Lovely. Breathtaking. And I love your island descriptions. I was thinking of you last week while I played the drudge here at work. "I wonder where Flora's at now. I wonder what Flora's doing now ... the wench!"

St. John, huh? Rats. We're not going that way. We are, however, going to San Juan. Rainy San Juan.
