Virgin Gorda, like all the other islands is straight up and down. This driveway was discovered on a walk from Leverick Bay. All the other houses could have been similarly named.
For "my friend, Sam" in Olympia.
Full moon at Leverick Bay.
Little Dix Bay Resort in the Valley at Virgin Gorda. I have seen ads for this in the New Yorker for years! Also, for Caneel Bay Resort on St. John which we visited. So, these, along with Las Hadas in Manzanillo, make for my trifecta of upscale resorts advertised in the New Yorker visited on this journey.
The Baths. The cruiser's guide says it all, "When planning a trip around the island, it is essential to include the Baths. Located on the southwest tip of Virgin Gorda, the Baths are a most unusual formation of large granite boulders. Where the sea washes in between the huge rocks, large pools of light have been created where shafts of light play upon the water, creating a dramatic effect. The beach adjacent to the Baths is white and sandy and the snorkeling excellent." This picture does not do the area justice. The boulders are huge!
