1) in St. Thomas at the resort
2) jay at the St. Thomas resort holding not one, but TWO free rum punches - they were giving those things away everywhere!
3) our first iguana sighting - we thought we'd see a bunch of iguanas all vacation, but I think they liked the resort life, 'cuz that's where we saw most of them. apparently the color red makes them go into a "tizzy" - not sure what that means...
4) Jay at our 'eco-friendly' suite on St. John - we had a nice balcony, and they gave us complimentary champagne - but it was super hot!
5) Jay with a view from our balcony in St. John
6) there are a lot of ferrel cats, but they're all very nice - me with one
7) Jay at Francis Bay - the beaches were so beautiful and there was nobody there!
8) me at the bottom of only one set of the 168 stairs down to breakfast.... then it was 116 more to the beach... ouch.
9) I think these are orchids, no?
10) palm plants behind jay hehehe
11) they had a sculpture of a corset made of nails, and jay's posing
12) waiting a long time for Mr. Frett's taxi to take us to Cruz Bay where there's more civilization - he just sort of showed up when he wanted...
13) Margarita Phil's in Cruz Bay - $15 margaritas the size of your head!
14) here's a rainbow montage - that was our view from our balcony
15) wild donkeys at Big Maho Bay - cool but kind of scary...
16) me swimming behind an ass's ass hehehehe
17) me and the view from a hill next to Cinnamon Bay
18) sugar factory ruins
19) a nice couple that we found stranded at Cinnamon Bay took this as we rescued them and made them hike back to Maho with us
20) we went out to Coral Bay with a bunch of the workers from Maho Bay Camps to a place called Skinny Legs, and here we are
21) there's a beach called Drunk Bay, where people have taken washed-ashore coral and created sculptures on the beach that look like people - this is jay's attempt to create a stand-up man
22) back at St. Thomas, Jay won a bottle of rum in a ping pong tournament! Neat.
So all in all, we had a great time. The food was pretty expensive, but the hard alcohol was cheap - go figure. We had a great time - we actually did a lot of snorkeling, which is tough to take pictures of when you don't have a waterproof camera. We saw sea turtles, squid, flounders, jellyfish, lots of cool coral and tropical fishies... We also did some hiking, hung out on secluded beaches, and we did lots of napping in the middle of the day because DAMN it was hot and we had no AC! So now we're trying to fight our bodies from wanting to take naps at noon... that'd be tough to do at work when we go back Monday. We met some really nice people, Jay got a voodoo curse bestowed upon him, I got a boo boo when I tried to run real fast to catch a taxi and missed the fact that there was a handrail in front of me, we saw that cool rainbow, we saw lots of great nature things... it really was fun! A very nice honeymoon :)

Yes, Pat, my blog was attacked. I first thought I was just really popular. Thanks for the help - I did use the word verification thing, which people might find annoying, but there are some pretty funny words, no?
Fantastic post; great photos. I still have to give you your wedding present. I happen to like the spam comments. Specifically on my "Dr. Katz" post.
