We stop briefly at the famous Charlotte Amalie anchorage, before heading off to St. John, USVI. An amazingly beautiful island, a super hot and long hike (no ruins found, don't waste your time), and how we grab a mooring ball. A favorite game turns into a man overboard rescue, which everyone found funny, except for me. ---- ??????? ?? ?????? ? ??????????? ?????????? ?????? ?????, ????? ?? ????????? ??? ?. ????? ????, ??????????? ?????????? ???????. ?????????? ?????? ??????, ????? ? ??????????? ???????? ? ??????
