St. Croix photos, part 4

Pictures from Point Udall, the easternmost point in the United States:





Buck Island can be seen in the distance (more on that in a later post):



Ryan exploring the Milennium Monument, a stone structure built in 2000, representing the intersection of 2 M's.




After Point Udall, we drove along the north shore of the island. The landscape along Cane Bay reminded us of Hawaii:



More pretty sights along the north shore:






Gas on St. Croix was the cheapest I've seen in about a decade. There is an oil refinery on the island, and the gas tax is only 7 cents per gallon. The lowest price we saw was $1.28.



We had local food again that night. The goat stew (my dinner), red snapper (Rob's), and passionfruit punch were awesome, so we were glad we decided to ignore the propaganda plastered all over the doors :-)
