Short and sweet

My trip to the Virgin Islands was short and sweet.

We snorkeled a little bit, but it was hard to be excited by the fish because the current was pretty strong so we had to pay attention and make sure we could find where our stuff was.

I did go scuba diving and went for my first professional massage. Both were amazing... :)

I was pretty scared while scuba diving because my mask was filled with some water and our instructor didn't  give us very detailed instructions. In fact, our intro to scuba was about 10 minutes long and didn't involve getting in the water... Unusual, I think. Even though I was a swimmer, the sensation of breathing underwater was a little unnerving. We didn't see that much stuff, but we were able to get a lot closer to the coral and we could see small sea-eels at the bottom of the ocean. I would try it again in the Bahamas or Australia for sure.

The massage was heavenly. I think I fell asleep for a few minutes because I was so relaxed... We got complimentary tea, fuzzy robes, and cushy shoes.

I would definitely make it back to the Virgin Islands one day. Wedding destination?
