Tropical Storm Chris

Our vacation to the Virgin Islands has been everything one would expect for paradise. Crystal clear water, white sand beaches, constant breeze, mild temperatures, unceasing sunshine, reggae on the radio… (well except that American Airlines lost my mom’s luggage and it hasn’t been found yet). So we were a little shocked on Tuesday to hear the Tropical Storm Chris was headed our way. The hotel started delivering storm notices every couple of hours. Late Tuesday night they brought all the patio furniture into our rooms. Our condo is a good size but add patio furniture and it was a little cramped. Wednesday made for a day full of clouds and rain. Sam (aka storm tracker) was very excited to live through a tropical storm however it moved north of us and all we received was lots of rain. (rain we need in North Texas). Here are a few pictures of the clouds and patio furniture.
