We docked at the port in St. Thomas at 8 a.m. and we were met by this beautiful sunrise.

We did not plan on going on any tours in St. Thomas to save the cost. So we decided to get off the ship and check out some of the jewelry shops. We were told that if you wanted to buy jewelry we should shop at the stores right off the dock as that is where you can get some great deals off of fine jewelry items.

We decided on that option since we had planned a full day at the beach in St Maarten and a tour in Barbados. We visited several stores and were able to find me a ring and a few other items at good price. We boarded the ship at noon and spent the rest of day lounging at the pool and relaxing.
