Today was really good day on St. John.  Around 7:30a we tied the dinghy up on the dock and went for a hike on Lameshur Bay and Reef Bay trails.  It was supposed to be 1.8 miles along fairly cleared trails to see some petroglyphs, which we thought was doable.  While we didn’t go up to the top of the mountain, there was still a little bit of elevation. 

Even this early, the walk was already hot and humid.  Unfortunately, the signage was not super great.  We got to a couple of forks in the trail and were not 100% sure which path to take. 

The first one that we took erroneously went down a hill to what looked like housing ruins. 

We retraced our steps and continued on the main path, up the hill, to see the ruins of the sugar cane plantation house and what looked like slave quarters. 

Vegetation had overgrown on a lot of the buildings, but we were able to get the idea of what they looked like.  We were the only ones at both locations, so it was nice to explore the ruins by ourselves.
