| Airport in St. Thomas - waiting to leave |
Thursday, December 4, 1997 We motor sailed to Red Hook. I bought ten Tackless II shirts which I think surprised Gwen and Don. I intend to use them as Christmas presents. We parked the boat, packed, and took Shout in to the dock where I bought some additional Virgin Islands America's stuff. We saw some races as we went through Charlotte Amalie in the taxi. We got a taxi to the airport. He charged us $20.00 and it was a very jerky ride although Since it was only $15.00 coming from the airport, he got no tip. We had lunch in the airport. Corn pone with ham and cheese, a Dove bar and grapefruit juice for me, and Bob had a cold sandwich and two cups of juice. I mailed some film to the processors, and then we went through Customs and immigration which was very quick. |

The plane to NY left after we got to the airport and another AA plane came in. Our plane was about 45 minutes late taking off. We watched it come in and all the workers doing the turn-around |
All the standbys got on and Bob and I had a seat between us. |
We had a nice view as we took off. I think we saw part of the races. |

On the way back to the mainland, we got a snack - plantain chips, sandwich, grapes and a cookie. |
