St. Thomas , US Virgin Islands

La Medianoche is directly behind us on a mooring.

A very nice and familiar view. Now we are also missing "Bagalut" with Walter and Brigitte and " Vanora" with Tina and Peter and Chico.
Also "Jalan Jalan" with Liz and John and "Norm the storm" with Erika and Norman would be cool.

Today we went by commercial ferry to St Thomas. We started at Westend which is directly opposite the marina and left at 10.15.

After a 50 minutes ride along nice beaches of St John we arrived in St Thomas and saw the US flag flying.

They checked our passports, we had to give fingerprints and they took a digital image of us and stamped the passport with an entry for 3 months.

They told us to keep the green exit card and now we could come back with LinoCat.

But first we want to visit the island "Jost van Dyke" tomorrow or the day after.





Here you see one of the anchorages of St Thomas.














You can also take a seaplane from here. We saw 2 of them starting and it looked cool.

We often saw "seaplane landing areas" in our maps but we never saw one here so far.

The last one i have seen was in the Ijsselmeer in the Netherlands.
