October St. Croix - Day 3

Today we had an extremely extraordinary adventure.  We started off the day with a hefty breakfast.  After that, the group went to the farmers market to acquire some new fruits, vegetables, and herbs.  Interacting with the natives at the farmers market was interesting and challenging.  They spoke with a strong Croatian dialect.  Some of the foods we tasted were goose berries, sugar cane, and golden apples.  A class on coconuts soon followed the tasting.  Tasting, learning, and defleshing the coconuts was awesome.  Later on, we went to the beach.  Half of us went snorkeling, while the other half waited on the beach.  Seeing the varieties of sea creatures was engaging. Our dinner consisted of bbq chicken sandwiches, Mac n' cheese, and a tasty green bean salad. Time for circle up where we share our day's successes!
