      St. Thomas

      January 14 on the U.S. Virgin Islands ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

      We spent three days in St. Thomas. On the first day, I wasn't feeling well 🤒
      Day two, we conquered paperwork (yawn), did laundry (exciting, right?), and navigated a sea of jewelry shops in Charlotte Amalie. Bling, bling everywhere – blame it on the cruise ship swarm!

      Day three's grand plan? Hit up a cozy beach. But, oops, we docked at a VIP-only pier. Swiftly moved our dinghy to the public beach, crisis averted.

      Shortly after, an older gentleman approached, assuming we were hotel guests. I explained we were just there for the day, and he nodded, saying "okay," before wandering off.

      An hour later, he returned, declaring us "cool guys" and offering two champagne bottles. He and his wife were leaving and couldn't finish the bubbly, so he wanted us to have it. Of course, we gladly accepted! 😁 We chatted a bit more and discovered that one of his parents hailed from Flums. Cheers to unexpected connections! 🥂

      Oh, and guess what? We anchored right behind Jeff Bezos' amazing yacht for those three days😎
