Caribbean dreams

Scott and I are hoping to go back to the Caribbean in the next couple of months... Five days two years ago just wasn't enough! Here are some of the flora and fauna pictures from our honeymoon in the US Virgin Islands:
I think this picture is so cool. I love the tropical colors juxtaposed with this scaly lizard!
The lizards (iguanas?) were everywhere. They are creepy, but harmless. Here they are on the walkway down to the beach from the main Marriott hotel in St. Thomas:
We took a day trip to St. John. It truly looks like a postcard:

Here is a bird that was about a foot away from us while we were eating lunch. Notice the pretty hibiscus growing wild.

There is a mongoose near the center, to the right in this picture! Like Riki Tiki Tavi! (This was taken at the sugar mill ruins.)

Driving on the wrong side of the road is hard enough without donkeys on the road!
They say Kenny Chesney lives here. I can see why!
Ahhh...... Now, I'm headed to Travelocity!

Do you have any extra room in your suitcase. This part of Idaho is getting on my nerves. Can't spring just get here already? Have fun and enjoy! I looks great~
