Deez Nuts (and Other Cruisin' Tales)

Chris and I spent last week in the Eastern Caribbean with eleven of his coworkers and their guests. We had such a great time. Thanks Chris, for working so hard and earning cool trips!
Puerto RicoWe were exploring an old military fort in San Juan when we happened upon this hermit crab. The entire time Chris was holding that crab, the ornery little cuss was pinching the life out of Chris' fingers, which Haley informs me hermit crabs don't usually do. So finally Chris put the crab down on this cement wall, the other side of which dropped down 30 feet into a stair well. I'm not kidding: the second that crab's legs touched the cement, it made a bee-line for the other side and threw itself over the edge. Maybe we weren't the first ones to force it into a photo op that day? Whatever the reason, that crab had had enough. RIP, little guy.Aruba

DominicaNo matter how thirsty you are, and no matter how many times your tour guide tells you that the spring water is pure, don't drink it. Ever. Never, ever, ever. Because if you do, you might spend the next day praying for death. Trust me on this one.St. Thomas
