St Thomas Christmas 2010

After our trip to Idaho we got to spend a week in St Thomas with my family. Nick learned quickly that a vacation with my family revolves around FOOD! Every meal we are all planning and talking about what we are going to eat next. We talked it up quite a bit, but I don't think he was disappointed. I got to eat all my personal favorite beach vacation foods including lots of nachos, yummy fish, and fried banana cheesecake with chunky monkey ice cream.

In between meals we also had a lot of fun too. We went scuba diving one day and saw tons of cool things including: some sort of shark, a turtle, a couple different eels, and of course lots of fish. We would both love to get certified if we can ever find the time/are in the US long enough. I don't think my Chinese is ever going to be good enough to take the class here. We took the ferry over to St. John one day where we got to do lots of snorkeling. We spent a day shopping, and driving around St Thomas, and all the rest of our time was spent at random beaches around the island.

Walking down the beach.

Snorkeling in St. Johns

Sapphire Beach I think. We had a few cloudy days, but the sun did come out after we took this picture, and overall we had pretty good weather for our whole trip.

Picture of our room from the beach. It was on the bottom floor, right behind the orange umbrella.


Dinner at Oceana...It was the restaurant recommended by our scuba guide. Delicious.

Thanks Mom and Dad for taking us on such a fun vacation! It was just what we needed to prepare us to come back to the cold in Dalian. We had a great time with everyone.
