People back home have been asking, “Do they have turkeys in the Virgin Islands?”
The answer is- YES, although it is nearly impossible to find one small enough to roast in our oven. I suppose we could have found a turkey breast, but instead we opted to join the Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner on Honeymoon Beach, Water Island, USVI. About twenty-five people gathered under the canopy of Joe’s Beach Bar, bringing a variety of dishes to share. Just as the buffet was set-up, a sudden downpour threatened to turn everything into soup. Fortunately, a few people who were still sober moved quickly to rearrange the table and saved the banquet! One guy said a brief blessing and we ate and drank our fill at a leisurely pace among good friends.
