St. Croix #2 - Nina Purkey and Kara Mumejian

On Thursday, St. Croix Group 2 arrived at the airport bright and early. Besides one delay, our flights went pretty smoothly. Anne, Scott and Katherine from Discovery Grove picked us up in Questie, our bus. After orientation, Susan prepared our first dinner at Discovery Grove and we ate spaghetti, garlic bread and salad.

On Friday, we woke up to a sunny hot day on St. Croix. We spent the first half of our day at Whim Plantation, a restored former sugar plantation. Then had lunch at a local Latin restaurant called Amigos and some of us tried conch!

After lunch we took a drive to the local boys and girls club in Christiansted. We played games and colored with the kids. Afterwards, we were so hot that we decided to go to Cane Bay for a swim. We ate dinner at a restaurant called Eat@Cane Bay. It was a long day and everyone but the girls fell right asleep.
