Fredricksted

Yesterday we said goodbye to Christiansted and drove across the island to the West side. The long arduous trip of thirteen miles. We setup camp in a nice oddly furnished condo by the beach about a mile from the quaint town. Definitely a more relaxed vibe here. And that’s saying something after leaving Christiansted.
I did some snorkeling out the back door. A lot of small fish. Saw a small lion fish. These guys are quite invasive here in the Caribbean. They belong in the Pacific.
