A Night Ashore

Judy's friends Micki and Lee graciously invited us to their winter home on Tortola to eat dinner and spend the night in their guest cottage. What a beautiful place they have, high on the hill with a great view overlooking the ocean. It was very pleasant to sleep with the sound of the waves breaking below. Before breakfast, Lee took me for a guided hike in the rain forest in Sage Mountain National Park, land which was donated by Rockerfeller, the same as he did on St John. It was really interesting to see the boidiversity - the north side at the top of the mountain receives about 80 inches of rainfall a year, double the amount of the lower islands. Thank you Micki and Lee!
