Well I'm back from my trip to
St. John Virgin Islands. This is a pick of me

and shannon waiting in St. Thomas for the ferry over to St. John. It was so hot when we got off the plane, I thought we were going to die. We went from -5 to +29-31 degrees in a few hours. It was amazing. Shannon and Ihad such a good time. Our first night there we went out to dinner at Rhumb lines with Larry and Jen. If you know Kenny Chesney well that apparently is the place where he and Renée Zellweger went after their wedding. The food was amazing. I had the pad thai and Shannon had the pork. I had the best passion fruit daiquiri. Then we came back to the resort and swam in the pool and layed around in the hot tub. We also went snorkeling, rode some water bikes, went for a tour of the island and lazed around on the beach. Definitly a well needed holiday. Of course I still went to the conference but it was very low key. But a valuable learning experience. I'll post some more pics of our vacation.
