Days 74-80: Strolla gets a visitor
For the next week as we island hop through the Virgin Islands, there's 5 of us on board. Our friend Jenny who worked with us out in Wyoming flew into Charlotte Amalie to test her sea legs. After breakfast at a cafe in town, out to sea we go. And in practically no time at all, Jenny's breakfast comes right back up, over and over again.
