Dec 26 Tortola, British Virgin Islands

 From the French to the British.  And on a very British sort of day, Boxing Day. We just walked around at this port.

We did get to dock right across from a behemoth, Disney Fantasy. It can hold 4000 passengers and we saw many family units leaving the ship with Mom, Dad and 2-3 children. Great time for a Disney cruise, during the Christmas break. With 4 or 5 in a room, the ship was probably at the 4K mark.

Disney on the right, our rowboat is on the left.

Due to my mistake in locating a craft market, we walked a couple of miles out of the way.  We got back to the waterfront area and shared a Coke in what looked like a Red Bull can.  But it was a very refreshing Coke.

This is a prison dating back to the 18th century.  The notes say that it's still a working jail, although they do have tours of the old part.  But not today.  Boxing Day and all.

We didn't stop

Like all of these ports, you have to build in the hills.  But you get good views.  Just a tough trip to the grocery store.

But you can be assured that there's a Diamonds International, marking this as a true Caribbean cruise port.  Take that, St. Barts.

A nice trip.  We enjoyed it enough that we've booked a cruise again for 2024 in December, although to the Western Caribbean this time.  

Next up, Easter Island and a cruise around South America.  This is our attempt to finish where we were in March 2020 when the cruise was cancelled for some reason.  See you then.
