Virgin Islands {St. Thomas Magen's Beach}

After our day of fun in the major sun in St. John, we took a day to lay by the pool, relax, read, basically do whatever we wanted. I love those days just as much as the busier days. On our last full day on the island, we drove over to Magen's Beach. The pictures were amazing, and a lot of people suggested we go there. It was really pretty, but it was a cloudy day, and I guess the water was murkier than it usually is. 
There were a lot more people there than we saw basically anywhere else on the whole trip.

It was hard to get a decent picture with so many people there.

kari, laurann, cheryl, julie, me

laurann had the idea to come on this trip to celebrate her MBA completion. she missed graduation to fly to st. thomas so we did a quick photo shoot on the beach with her cap.

cheryl, kari, and julie did stand up paddle boards.

if you look closely, you can see all 3 of them standing up

all the cruisers left, and the beach got a lot quieter

It was pretty overcast that day which was probably good for all the sunburns. Even though it was a little crowded and overcast, I'm happy we decided to go to Magen's beach. It was a nice relaxing day on the beach.

We were all so sad this was the last full day. We spent the next morning packing up before heading to the pool. I left several hours before everyone else so I spent about an hour at the pool before going to the airport to leave. This vacation was exactly what I needed. Even though I had to leave the beautiful islands, my trip wasn't over yet. Next up...California.
